In young animals in a collective situation (eg. pet shops) a simple conjunctivitis in which the teeth are not involved may be encountered. Cytology may be useful in identifying the causative organism(s). Chlamydophila psittaci may be involved (scrapings from the back of the membrana nictitans may be helpful) and should respond to ciporofloxacin eye drops (Ciloxan®; Alcon Labs).
