Ask your vet for a referral to an ophthalmologist. Lady has been going to one for several years because of her eye problems. Regular vets just don't have the expertise and equipment to examine their eyes unless it's a very simple problem.

It's really not that much more expensive, either. The office visit is $15 more than my vet, but all the basic tests and prescriptions were less so it ended up about the same.
