Senile, or late onset, canine cataracts form in dogs who are six years of age or older. A hereditary canine cataract can develop on its own or simultaneously with another eye disease. However, diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic cause of canine cataract formation. Excess water is drawn to the lens as part of the diabetes melletus metabolic process and breaks down the lens fiber, causing a canine cataract. Canine cataracts form quickly in unregulated dogs and often develop in both eyes.
