Fig 1. Aqueous humor aspirate, OD (Wright’s stain 500x)

Fig1_September2014b

Representative image of a Wright’s-stained smear of aqueous humor from the right eye of a dog with chronic uveitis. Neutrophils, some of which are degenerate, dominate with low numbers of macrophages. A macrophage containing melanin is also seen in this image (arrow). Melanin is normally found in the ocular uvea and melanophages can be seen in any inflammatory condition involving the internal eye. Bacteria are difficult to identify in this image (500x).
