What is Enucleation: Eye Removal Procedure Guide about?
Enucleation is the surgical removal of the eyeball, leaving the eye muscles and orbital contents intact. It is performed to remove large eye tumors or severely damaged eyes from trauma. The two main types of eye tumors that may require enucleation are intraocular melanoma and retinoblastoma. The procedure involves removing the conjunctiva, severing the optic nerve, and removing the eyeball. Patients receive anesthesia and antibiotics. Risks include bleeding, infection, and the need for additional surgery. W
