Pet Cat Owner Goes Blind. The Reason Why Will Make You Think Twice
She was sound asleep when she suddenly woke up, puzzled at why she couldn't see from one eye. She initially thought it was just a pink eye, but after checking up with the optometrist, she found out that her eye was infected.
Unfortunately for Jane, doctors told her that her vision loss cannot be cured. Prior to being diagnosed, she wasn't even aware that there was a kind of disease like that even existed. But she felt seemingly lucky as the cat scratch was only able to affect her one eye, as she can still see with the other.
Kristopher Brickman of University of Toledo, said that the infection can spread through when a cat that's infected with the disease comes in contact with the skin such as it's saliva, claws and paws. Roughly about 40% of cats carry the disease, so people thinking about getting a pet with a cat should schedule a check up with an animal vet first before taking the cat home for safety purposes.
