Fact: Though blindness in horses are caused by a multitude of things, Equine Recurrent Uveitis (Moon Blindness) is the most common. It is a swelling and inflammation in the eye. With chronic inflammation cataracts and glaucoma also present. Treatment goals are usually to reduce amount of blindness however extreme cases can result in the necessity to remove the eye entirely. One horse that is living happily and healthily after loosing his vision is, 
Endo the appy. Though blind horses are more difficult to care for they can live long happy lives just like a horse with full vision. It's often best to have a companion animal such as a goat or another horse, that can help them along the way. Blind horses have the ability to make a "mental map" of areas so they should always be walked through new areas while you tap on objects that might interfere with their movement such as fences and any large poles or trees.

Fact: 
Equine dwarfism is most prevalent in the miniature horse breed, but has also been recorded in friesians, mustangs, shetland ponies, and even the miniature donkey.  In the miniature horse breed, dwarfism is estimated to be in over 50% of the population and affects all miniature horse bloodlines. There are four types of dwarfism that appear in equines achondroplasia, brachiocephalic, dystrophic and hypochondrogenesis. The most apparent traits in a dwarf horse are small stature, large head, and disproportionately short limbs when compared with the body of the horse.

Fact: Dwarfism is defined as the “underdevelopment of the body characterized by an abnormally short stature often with underdeveloped limbs and other defects.” Dwarfism is a recessive genetic disorder where both parents must pass on an affected allele to the offspring. Equine dwarfism is most prevalent in the miniature horse breed, but has also been recorded in friesians, mustangs, shetland ponies, and even the miniature donkey.

Fact: One of the most common forms of deafness today is coat-color-associated deafness in a minority of splashed and possibly frame overos. These horses are born deaf and exhibit a flatline response to a BAER. A similar syndrome causes deafness in white, blue-eyed cats and Dalmatian dogs. I want to stress that only a small minority of overos are deaf. The biggest repercussions of owning a deaf horse involve modifying your training techniques. Because these horses cannot rely on voice cues, they must be trained using visual cues on the ground and tactile cues under saddle. The only other major consequence is that you must make sure your horse is not startled by the unseen and unexpected approach of people or other animals.
-credit to chillypepper.org- she has owned a deaf mare for 24 years.
