The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and California Veterinary Specialists are teaming up for the 7th annual public service event providing free screening eye exams to Service Animals throughout the month of May 2014. Eligible service animals are invited to receive a free eye exam from our board certified ophthalmologist. Repeat clients from past events are welcome to participate. Best of all, the Service Animal’s owner/agent will incur no cost for these screening services. It is anticipated that through these efforts Service Animal health can be improved and potential disease averted for many of animals. To check eligibility and register online beginning April 1st, go to www.ACVOEyeExam.org. Registration ends April 30 and the complimentary eye screenings take place in May 2014. Appointments will be taken at our Murrieta location and our Carlsbad location after the initial ACVO qualification registration takes place. (This event is endorsed by the AVMA.)
