Figure 1-3 Right eye of cat in Figure 1-2. The upper eyelid agenesis involves most of the eyelid and lateral canthus—the most common location for eyelid agenesis in cats. Pigment is present on the cornea as a result of chronic exposure and because hair has come in contact with the cornea. The defect is corrected by the grafting of skin and conjunctiva to fill the defect. A mature cataract is present and is an unrelated problem.
