Mike,
As I mentioned to Moose, Othello's distant ancestor that owned us for many
years suffered from macular degeneration, something our Auburn
University-trained vet had read of, but had never seen. Here are three
links to images showing the eyes over the years. I hope that this rare
disease doesn't follow the lovable long-haired black line, but thought you
might appreciate seeing them.

Give our best to Othello.
