Vet before you buy (or sell).

The identification and treatment of unsightly eye diseases.
The basic anatomy of the equine eye makes it prone to all sorts of problems including a variety of nasty equine ophthalmic diseases. If left untreated there is the potential for severe damage to occur, which may eventually lead to blindness. It is therefore unsurprising that at Equis Veterinary Practice we take equine eye conditions very seriously, and have invested a great deal of time and effort into the identification and successful treatment of eye disease in horses.
