River Bridge Animal Hospital

The test, performed with a device called a tonometer, is not painful and does not require sedation. Increased pressure within the eye itself can be extremely painful for your pet and constitutes a medical emergency to prevent rupturing of the eyeball.

Before you leave you should give River Bridge Animal Hospital a call at 561-966-1171 and alert them that you are inbound. Even larger clinics and hospitals prefer when you give them a heads up so they can prepare to receive you. Depending on your pet's emergency, they may have to call in off-duty vets for additional support.
