Hi Walter, how lucky you are to have a healthy 15 year old. My take is a bit different and many will disagree, but here goes. Unless Chloe is in pain or is having a lot of difficulty navigating through her daily routines, I don't think I would put her through the trama of surgery. If it was a life threatening sitution, I would think differently, but to risk surgery for clearer vision would probably not be an option for my girls. My two precious princesses are house dogs, they have a safe fenced back yard and are rarely outside alone for more than a couple of minutes. Also, we live a quiet stable life - our home is safe for the girls and we rarely add or move furniture, which would create obstacles for a furgirl with dimming vision.

I guess it is up to each of us to make tough decisions regarding our furbabies.
