ABSTRACT:
An improved small animal restraint device is provided which enables an inidual to conduct ocular examinations of a small animal. The device minimizes manipulation of the eyes of the animal and eliminates recovery time associated with anesthetics, while also reducing examination time. The restraint device comprises a cylinder having a longitudinal slot in the wall thereof. A conical member which is attached to one end of the cylinder includes a pair of eye openings in the upper wall thereof and a nose opening at the apex thereof. A plunger placed in the cylinder at the other end thereof assists in holding the animal in place. A set screw, which extends through the slot in the wall of the cylinder, secures the plunger in place.
