Many practitioners, particularly new veterinary graduates, often do not feel comfortable removing a blind, painful eye that warrants enucleation. Surgeons are made more uncomfortable when performing an enucleation in a ruptured globe. This lecture will provide an overview of a subconjunctival enucleation (and why Dr. Giuliano prefers this approach over the transpalpebral method in her small animal patients), Further, this lecture will provide some useful tips to making this common procedure a more comfortable experience for both patient and veterinarian alike. Questions and discussion will be encouraged!
