Life wasn’t looking too bright last year for Cyrus, a 10-year-old German shorthaired pointer. Not only had he lost his home, he was also losing his sight. Living in a shelter, Cyrus was suffering from corneal endothelial dystrophy, a disease in the eyes that causes premature degeneration of endothelial cells, which are critical to pumping fluid out of the cornea and maintaining transparency.
