Катаракта достаточно часто встречается у молодых тигрят, выросших в неволе, в связи с отсутствием материнского молока и приемом искусственных пищевых добавок, обладающих катарактогенным действием. Начало созревания катаракты и снижение зрения отмечается в возрасте 2…3 мес. Помутнение хрусталика у тигрят развивается быстро, буквально за несколько недель. Зрелая катаракта сначала приводит к полной слепоте животного, а затем возможна гибель глаза вследствие набухания хрусталика с развитием терминальной факогенной глаукомы или аутоимунного панофтальмита. Микрохирургическое удаление мутного хрусталика является единственным эффективным способом вернуть зрительные функции у молодых тигров с катарактой. Настоящее сообщение описывает наш сравнительный опыт микрохирургии катаракты 8 глаз тигрят в возрасте от 2,5 до 5 месяцев методами ультразвуковой факоэмульсификации и операции аспирации мягкого хрусталика. Операции прошли без осложнений. У животных через 2…3 дня после операции отмечено значительное улучшение зрительных функций. Они начали свободно ориентироваться в пространстве, играть в игрушки. Значительно изменилось их поведение: полностью исчезали заторможенность и пугливость.

Cataracts are common in young tiger cubs who grew up in captivity due to the lack of mother 's milk and eating of artificial food additives with cataractogenic effects. The onset of maturation of cataracts and decreased vision is noted in 2…3 months. The development of lens opacity in tiger cubs occurs quickly, literally in a few weeks. Mature cataract first leads to complete blindness of the animal, and then the possible death of the eye due to swelling of the lens with the development of terminal phacogenic glaucoma or autoimmune panophthalmitis. Microsurgical removal of cataracts is the only effective way to restore visual functions in young tigers with cataracts. This article describes our comparative experience microsurgery of cataracts of 8 tiger cubs aged 2.5 to 5 months by ultrasound phacoemulsification and soft lens aspiration surgery. The surgeries were carried out without complications. The animals had a significant improvement in visual functions 2…3 days after surgery. They started freely navigate in space, play with toys. Their behavior has changed significantly: inhibition and timidity have completely disappeared.
