    Eye problems.. or something worse?

    It was many months ago, but someone posted a picture of their cat and one eye had a small retina from the flash while the other eye stayed dilated. Someone mentioned that it could be linked to an illness or disease but I can't remember what....

    Well recently, we found Reebok's eyes doing the same thing. He's otherwise a normal healthy cat.

    I'm googling...but can't find anything.. :\

    with Flash


    No Flash but in the sunlight.. both eyes small not dilated.

    I don't know if it is related to any health problems, so i'm sorry I can't help you there.
    In regards to the first picture, mind you it is only my opinion, I feel that Reebok's eyes are just adjusting to the flash of the camera.
    Also, cat's eyes do not dilate when they are in sunlight anyway, so you have nothing to worry about there.

    If you are concerned about this, maybe you can have your vet check his eyes out to put your mind at ease.
