Corneal ulcer is a common pathology of the anterior part of the eye in cats, of various etiologies, but clinically manifested stereotypically, by the loss of corneal epithelium with a positive fluorescein test and pain. An analysis of 184 cases of various problems of the organs of vision revealed that the incidence of this pathology in the Rostov region is more than 70%. Corneal ulcers of any etiology with simultaneous infection caused by FHV-1 respond better to therapy with systemic antiviral and anti-collagenase drugs. Combined therapy of corneal ulcers in cats with the simultaneous administration of “Famciclovir” and heterogeneous serum significantly reduces the recovery time of the corneal epithelium.
