In this study, the incidence of eye diseases in cats and dogs brought to Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University Animal Hospital Surgery Clinic between 2021-2022 was investigated. The material of the study consisted of 200 patients (103 dogs and 97 cats). Eye pathology was diagnosed in 35.05% of the examined cats and 35.92% of the examined dogs. The most common cat breed with eye pathologies was mixed breeds with a rate of 29.8%, and the most common dog breed was Golden Retrievers with a rate of 82.3%. When the anatomical localization of the pathologies encountered in the cats and dogs included in the study was evaluated, it was seen that the most common anatomical region with pathologies in cats was the cornea, and the most common anatomical region with pathologies in dogs was the lens. According to the data recorded during the study, the most common eye pathologies were corneal damage 14.7% for cats and senile nuclear sclerosis 36.75% for dogs. In conclusion, with this study, it was aimed to help veterinarians to approach eye diseases by identifying the most common eye diseases in cats and dogs brought to Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University Animal Hospital Surgery Clinic.
