Dog (Canis lupus familiaris) — Ectropion (hereditary; OMIA-verified species predisposition)
Source: first-hand OMIA (University of Sydney) species-specific hereditary-disorder record, saved verbatim to source_file; every claim below is a C1 byte-substring of it.
Claims
Species: Dog (Canis lupus familiaris)Disorder: EctropionSummary: Genetics Committee of the American College of Veterinary Opthalmologists (2021): Ecrtopion is "a conformational defect resulting in eversion of the eyelid margin, which may cause ocular irritation due to exposure. It is likely that ectropion is influenced by several factors defining the skin and other structures, which make up the eyelids, orbital contents, and conformation of the skull."
