The number of male in the patient group was 21 (61.76%) andfemale was 13 (39.24%). Evisceration was performed in 17 patients(50.0%), enucleation was performed in 14 patients(41.17%) and 3 of them (8.82%) were underwent exenteration. The leading indications for eye amputations were enfectiousreasons (n=9, 26.5%), malignancy (n=8, 17.6%), trauma (n=4, 11.8%), absoluteglaucoma (n=4, 11.8%) and bullous keratopathy (n=3, 8.8%).Conclusion: Infectious reasons were the most commonetiology for eye removals, and malignancy was the second. Evisceration was found to be the mostcommonly performed surgery for the eye removal. CR - Coden DJ. Orbital exenteration.
