Eyes
The WCSS advises eye tes ng with the KC/BVA Eye Scheme to help make sure that all
Clumbers bred have good eye health and conforma on.
The BVA only publish a subset of the total results to the Royal Kennel Club's website when
owners have a KC/BVA eye test done. Which parts of the results are published may be
inconsistent year to year. The Health Advisory Panel and the CSC health subcommi ee
would be grateful if they would share a copy so we can monitor eye health in the breed.
