← Longevity Science · Case reports · 2024
Two dogs received oral equine placental extract alongside ongoing eye-drop treatment, with subsequent clinical improvement.
Two clinical cases receiving eye drops; the supplement’s contribution cannot be isolated.
What the researchers observed
The case report describes improvement in physical condition and corneal injury after supplementation was added to existing care.
How this connects to your routine
This is not evidence for using a nutritional supplement as an eye treatment, or for replacing prescribed medicine.
Understanding the study
- Study design: Two-case report with concurrent treatment
- Participants or model: Two dogs, aged 10 and 14 years, with corneal injuries
- Preparation: Oral equine placental extract supplement given alongside prescribed ophthalmic treatment.
What this study cannot tell us
Both dogs continued eye-drop treatment. With two cases and no control group, the contribution of the supplement cannot be separated from other care or natural healing. Eye injuries require veterinary assessment.
