German Wirehaired Pointer — Corneal dystrophy (hereditary; OMIA-verified breed predisposition)
Source: first-hand OMIA (University of Sydney) breed-specific hereditary-disorder record, saved verbatim to source_file; every claim below is a C1 byte-substring of it.
Claims
Breed: German Wirehaired Pointer (Dog)Disorder:Summary: Genetics Committee of the American College of Veterinary Opthalmologists (2021): non-inflammatory corneal opacity (white to gray) present in one or more of the corneal layers (epithelium, stroma, endothelium). The term dystrophy implies an inherited condition. It is usually bilateral although not necessarily symmetrical and the onset in one eye may precede the other.Defect: yes
