Using a Poisson regression model, increased average wind speed (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0<\u00a00.01) and increased average temperature (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.08) were associated with higher rates of corneal ulceration. Male horses were more likely to develop ulcers (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.004) compared with females. Older age (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.0001), deeper ulcers (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.0001), and involvement of the left eye (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.05) were associated with an increased risk for enucleation. The presence of uveitis was also associated with the need for enucleation (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.002).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Equine emergency veterinarians should be aware that both wind speed and increasing temperatures are associated with corneal ulceration in the Western United States. Enucleation in horses with corneal ulcers is associated with increasing age, uveitis, and increasing depth of the ulcer.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vec.70149","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,14]],"date-time":"2026-08-14T16:07:51Z","timestamp":1786723671000},"page":"533-537","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Factors Associated With Corneal Ulceration in Horses: 420 Cases (2020\u20132023)"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Valeria Adamchick","family":"Galindo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Loomis Basin Equine Medical Center Penryn California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Langdon","family":"Fielding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Loomis Basin Equine Medical Center Penryn California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vec.13332"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0749\u20100739(17)30136\u20100"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cveq.2021.04.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0749\u20100739(17)30440\u20106"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","first-page":"252","volume-title":"Equine Ophthalmology","author":"Brooks D.
