 | | Bandage lens therapy can be extremely effective in these cases, offering multifaceted relief. | | | If a bandage lens fails to provide relief, you'll need to refer the patient for penetrating keratoplasty, which is highly successful, and for treatment of the underlying etiology. | | | Bandage lenses help us manage many pathological conditions, but are not without risk. |

| | APPLYING A HOOF AND LOWER LEG BANDAGE |
| | The bandage must be applied smoothly, evenly and with the right amount of tension so as not to interfere with circulation or put undue pressure on vital structures. | | | Without a properly applied bandage, it will be difficult - if not impossible - to heal many types of foot and lower leg injuries. | | | Because a bandage covering the lower leg and especially the hoof will require frequent changing, you will get plenty of practice. |
