What are the dogs called that assist the blind?

I’m writing a career report and I can’t think of what those dogs are called when they are trained to help the blind. I want to say “seeing eye dogs” but that doesn’t sound like the proper wording. Is that right, or is there a more formal word for that??

*Thanks
