- Abstract
The article describes the case of a Tennessee Walking Horse gelding that was presented to the University of Georgia's Veterinary Teaching Hospital for evaluation of episodic fever and acute bilateral blindness of approximately 7 days' duration. Abnormalities on initial ophthalmic examination entailed absent menace responses with intact palpebral reflexes ocular uterque (OU). Initial treatment of the horse included systemic antifungal treatment with fluconazole.
