Eye enucleation surgery in Turkey: In what cases?

Eye enucleation surgery, or removal of the eye, is a procedure performed in certain cases, including:

Types of eye tumors

There are two types of tumors that require removal of the eye:

Ocular melanoma

Ocular melanoma is a rare cancer that affects the melanocyte cells in the eye. When these cells become cancerous, the tumor grows and can affect the iris. If the tumor reaches the iris and begins to grow, or if symptoms occur, removal of the eye may be necessary.

Retinoblastoma (retina tumor)

Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor that develops in the retina, a thin layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye and is responsible for capturing light and forming images.

Ocular enucleation procedure

Ocular enucleation is usually performed under local anesthesia, which means that the patient is conscious during the procedure but does not feel any pain. The anesthetic is injected around the eye and into the patient's vein, and a sedative may also be given to reduce anxiety.

The procedure steps include:

  1. Measuring and marking the eyeball: The surgeon measures the dimensions of the eyeball, optic nerve, and cornea, and then marks the eye to determine the incision site.
  2. Opening the eye: A dissecting microscope is used to view the eye in detail, and a sharp blade is used to open the eye.
  3. Removing the eyeball: The eyeball is carefully removed from its socket, taking care not to damage the surrounding muscles and nerves.
  4. Closing the orbit: The orbital cavity is closed with stitches, and an ocular prosthesis may be placed for aesthetic reasons.

The surgical technique for enucleation involves making a circular incision behind the eye, starting near the optic nerve and ending at the cornea. The exact position of the incision depends on the location of the lesion to be removed. In the absence of a specific lesion, the eye is cut horizontally.

Ocular enucleation is a major surgical procedure that can have a significant impact on a patient's life. It is important to discuss the risks and benefits of this procedure with an ophthalmologist before making a decision.

Complications of eye enucleation surgery

Complications after eye removal surgery are infrequent, but it's important to be aware of potential issues such as :

In case of any complications, seeking immediate medical attention is crucial for effective treatment.

For those who have undergone eye removal, the possibility of eye transplantation in the future is worth considering. While infection is a risk associated with this procedure, strict surgical protocols and prophylactic antibiotic treatment can help minimize it.

Following surgery, patients wear a temporary eye prosthesis for two to six weeks. Once the swelling and redness have subsided, a permanent ocular prosthesis is fitted, providing a natural appearance and a sense of satisfaction.
