Advanced vision and eye care to help your pet live a better, more comfortable life.
We understand that seeing your pet experience unusual symptoms or act out of the ordinary can be stressful – especially if you don’t know what’s wrong. Fortunately, our veterinary ophthalmology team is made up of experts in diagnosing and treating diseases of the eye, and we’re here to help.
Our commitment is not just to treat illnesses; it’s to enhance the well-being of your pet and be with you every step of the way.
If your pet has an eye condition, you’ll have an entire ophthalmology team helping to improve your pet’s quality of life so you can get back to what matters most – spending precious moments together.
Your pet will receive unparalleled medical care during their time at the hospital (and they’ll be spoiled with love and attention, too).
Your pet can’t tell us what’s wrong, so we use sophisticated diagnostics and imaging tools to uncover the source of the problem.
Just as no two patients are the same, neither are their treatment plans. Our ophthalmology team has experience with a range of advanced procedures and minimally invasive care options to get your pet on the path to wellness, including:
Experience makes all the difference.
Our ophthalmology team is made up of veterinarians, vet technicians and assistants, and support staff with rigorous training and experience in specialty medicine. The team works hand in hand to provide the comprehensive, compassionate care your pet needs and deserves. Because we’re a multidisciplinary hospital, the team can consult the expertise of other specialty departments, too.
During her internship in Idaho, and later as an ER doctor, Dr. Ally Darrow discovered a love for ophthalmology and pursued further education to become a veterinary ophthalmologist.
Dr. Darrow is from southern Oregon and loves everything about the PNW – from the craggy coastlines to the wild mountain ranges. During downtime, she and her wife can be found beach-going with their pug grumble, spending lazy mornings with their hoard of cats and enjoying many backyard bonfires.
Dr. Gia Klauss is particularly interested in the surgical management of conformational abnormalities of the eyelids like entropion or ectropion as well as treating dry eye and a wide variety of corneal diseases. She specializes in phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation for surgical treatment of cataracts. Dr. Klauss is a frequent lecturer at regional, national and international continuing education conferences.
Dr. Klauss has been a sewist for over thirty years and sports a handmade wardrobe every day. She is an avid trail runner and cyclist (road, gravel, fat biking). She and her husband, also a vet, have found canine perfection in their perpetual puppy, Don Fritto.
We want you to be prepared for your pet’s visit to the ophthalmologist, so you have one less thing to worry about. Our entire BluePearl team will be with you every step of the way.
