How can an enucleation of the human eye work?

Surgical removal: Enucleation is a term to describe surgically removal of an eye ball. When a blind eye becomes intolerably painful, enucleation may be the only way to get complete relief. The surgery is carried out in the operating room. Patient usually is under general anesthesia. The eyeball is removed and the empty orbit is replaced with an implant. Patient later will be fitted with an prosthesis.
