Our poodle has a cataract but no vet to perform surgery

I think it will be a good gamble if you have the cataract removed while the other eye is still functioning well. But you have to be sure to find a specialist for that operation because it is the sight that is involved. Even in humans, there are failed cataract surgeries so you have to be very careful in choosing the vet.

That's just it. We've already asked five different vets in the city and they cannot recommend any vet who can perform surgery. Still, she's already an old dog and we're not sure if she can handle it. We are just relieved that she's not in any pain whatsoever and her right leg has healed as well and she's almost not limping anymore. She's a really small dog, like a puppy almost so we were really amazed she still survived the attack from two very large dogs.
