Eviseration implant

This is what an eviseration implant looks like. An eviseration is when you basically scoop out the contents of the eye and put in an implant. People do this because they think it's better than having an empty socket in their dog, but quite frankly, this looks pretty freaky. Eviseration also predisposes the dog to corneal ulceration and dry eye which is irritating to the animal. It's better medically (and to me aesthetically) to just enucleate.
