My dog has very reflective eyes but no night vision!
I just adopted a dog from a local shelter and she bumps into things at night. She is 5 and very healthy. I am able to see, but she evidently cannot.
Her eyes are very reflective blue/green. I asked my vet to look at them and he said they were so reflective he couldn't see into them when shining a light. He told me to see a specialist.
I thought reflection helped with night vision! Is this correct?

the light reflecting cells in the dogs eye do send light to the light sensitive cells one extra time giving the dog better nightvision than we humans have.
but just as in humans dogs can have eye problems and many of these problems can be treated by medication if they are diagnosed early if you wait the dog might be totally blind.
here is a link to some of the eye problems dogs might have wagwalking.com/condition/vision-problems
so please take your dog to the specialist as soon as you possibly can to get this diagnosed and treated.it is important for your dogs future.
