To gain a baseline understanding of DEI challenges and perceptions, an online survey was conducted in March 2024. 208 responses were collected and analyzed alongside feedback from interactive DEI sessions at the annual congress (2024, San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain). The results indicated a predominantly female respondent group (66%), an overrepresentation of experienced pathologists (58.7%), and limited ethnic diversity, with 85.6% identifying as White/Caucasian. Key DEI challenges included workplace discrimination, financial disparities in residency programs, language barriers for non-native English speakers, limited neurodiversity accommodations, and a lack of LGBTQIA+ inclusivity. In response, the DEITF has developed a comprehensive set of recommendations outlining actionable strategies for ESVP/ECVP, training centers, and event organizers. These efforts focus on gender identity recognition, neurodiversity and accessibility, and residency experience improvements. Additionally, the DEITF is committed to implementing regular DEI-focused education, workshops, and policy recommendations. Future goals include the development of mentorship programs, the implementation of recommendations for equitable accessibility to professional opportunities, the establishment of DEI-focused scholarships, the integration of inclusive curricula, and advocacy for structural changes within training centers and professional societies to promote standardized policies supporting underrepresented groups. The DEITF actively welcomes collaboration and input from other DEI-focused groups within the field, emphasizing the importance of proactive engagement in fostering a more inclusive, diverse, and supportive veterinary pathology profession.</p>","PeriodicalId":23836,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary ophthalmology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144052569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty eyes of 10 dogs with bilateral senile cataracts were divided into two groups: Control Eyes (CE) (n = 10), which received balanced saline solution (BSS), and Treated Eyes (TE) (n = 10), which received 0.3 mL of intracameral Y-27632 at a concentration of 100 μmol/L immediately after corneal suturing. The corneal endothelium was evaluated through non-contact specular microscopy before and at different time points after phacoemulsification.
