| 中文描述 | 落磯山脈馬匹有花巧克力色的皮毛，被發現有一種遺傳性、先天、雙側性、非炎症性的角膜病，稱為球形角膜(牛眼症) 。一深的前房是由球狀突出的角膜製造的，情況類似青光眼不過沒有眼內壓的升高。受影響的動物其角膜會較一般動物厚，不過在組織切片下並無異常。 |
| 英文描述 | Horses of the Rocky Mountain breed with a dappled chocolate coat have developed a hereditary, congenital, bilateral, noninflammatory keratopathy called cornea globosa. A deep anterior chamber is produced by a globular, protruding cornea, producing a buphthalmos similar to that in glaucoma, although there is no increase in intraocular pressure. The cornea is thicker than normal in affected animals but is histologically normal. |
