Eye removal
Sometimes, despite the best treatment efforts, eyes can become blind, painful and unsightly. Eye removal is an option.
There are two broad techniques to remove eyes depending on how much is left behind. They both work well to remove pain but have pros and cons depending on individual circumstances.
An orbital implant is often used to replace the volume lost by eye removal to improve the appearance. An artificial eye sits on the implant. I work with ocularist (ocular prosthetic) colleagues who make excellent matching artificial eyes.
