The Pocket Beagles are not recognized as a separate breed from the regular size Beagles. They need a fenced and secure yard as they have the tendency to wander off following an interesting scent. The breed is very friendly and gets along with everybody including children, other dogs and cats.
A: Normal pressure in the eye is between 12 and 21mm Hg. Some patients are fortunate in that their optic nerves can tolerate pressures outside this range. If there are no other signs of glaucoma (visual field defect or optic nerve changes), then high pressures can be followed and simply observed.
Glaucoma is a term used to describe several types of eye conditions that affect the optic nerve. In most cases, damage to the optic nerve is caused by increased pressure in the eye, also known as intraocular pressure (IOP).Glaucoma can cause partial vision loss, with blindness as a possible eventual outcome.ntraocular eye pressure is normal (12 - 22 mmHg) in about 25 - 30% of U.S. glaucoma cases, a condition known as normal-tension glaucoma. Other factors are present that cause optic nerve damage but do not affect IOP.
