Parkeyre Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Can anybody please educate me regarding Perinuclear Halos and dogs. Hoping to please understand what it is, if it's inherited and anything else. Any information is welcome and appreciated. I've not ever heard of it and am now very curious and wanting to better understand. Thankyou in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekhbet Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I thought the perinuclear halo was describing an intracellular phenomenon, not about the occular lens http://journals.lww.com/greenjournal/Citat...ear_Halo.6.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
