Eye Vet Livingston

Quality Veterinary Ophthalmology

If something doesn’t seem quite right with your pet’s eyes, it could be a sign of something more serious. Getting advice or a referral to a more advanced clinic like View Referrals can help you deliver the eye care your pet needs. Founded by brothers Michael and Richard McCallum, our family-run veterinary ophthalmology practice is built around experience, clinical expertise, and a love for all kinds of animals. We’ll keep you in the loop through every stage of treatment, so you can be sure your pet is getting the care they need.

Understanding Your Pet's Eye Problems

Eye conditions aren’t always obvious. You might notice redness, fluid, or a change in how your pet reacts to light. Sometimes it’s just a feeling that something isn’t quite right.

We examine your pet’s eyes, explain our findings, and talk through what it means in practical terms. Our goal at View Referrals is to give you a clear picture of your pet’s eye health, along with straightforward guidance on what to do next.

Treatments Tailored To Your Pet

We regularly carry out the following ophthalmic treatments:

Cataract surgery to improve vision
Corneal procedures to repair damage and support healing
Eyelid surgery to reduce irritation and discomfort
Glaucoma treatment to manage pressure within the eye
Cherry eye correction using careful surgical techniques
In-depth eye examinations for diagnosis and monitoring

Michael and Richard have spent many years working in veterinary ophthalmology, developing skills in both routine and more complex procedures. They’re also passionate about supporting other vets, regularly sharing knowledge and practical experience to help improve standards across the profession.
