An evisceration is the removal of the eye's contents, leaving the scleral shell and extraocular muscles intact.〔Cassin, B. and Solomon, S. ''Dictionary of Eye Terminology''. Gainesville, Florida: Triad Publishing Company, 1990.〕〔Zein W. ("Evisceration, Enucleation, and Exenteration." ) Eyeweb.org. Accessed September 25, 2006.〕 The procedure is usually performed to reduce pain or improve cosmesis in a blind eye, as in cases of endophthalmitis unresponsive to antibiotics.〔〔 An ocular prosthetic can be fitted over the eviscerated eye in order to improve cosmesis.〔("Evisceration". ) Ocularist Association of California. Accessed September 25, 2006.〕 Either general or local anesthetics may be used during eviscerations, with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory agents injected intravenously.〔("Surgical Technique: Evisceration". ) Bio-Eye Orbital Implants.
