Excerpt from Enucleation of the Eyeball: Section of the Ciliary Nerves and Optic Nerve, Communicated to the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal; Some Unnecessary Causes of Impaired Vision, Communicated to the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal
Bonnet, in his treatise on Section of tendon and mus cles, says, When I meet with a case favorable to the ap plication I would thus proceed to enucleate the globe. Dis tending the lids with suitable instruments which I employ, I would cut the internal rectus with the same precautions as for the operation for strabismus. Then sliding the scissors along the wound I have made, between the sclerotic on one side and the subconjunctival fascia and muscles on the other, I would cut in turn all the recti muscles near their ocular insertion. We need then Only divide the obliqui as near as possible to the globe, and afterwards the Optic nerve. The globe will then be removed without my inter fering with any vessel or nerve, and without penetrating the orbital fat. By not touching vessel or nerve, of course he means as in the old Operation for extirpation of the contents Of the orbit.

For the surgical purposes of our operation we may regard it as a membranous sac on which the globe rolls, and which is pierced by the tendons of the muscles, the cutting of which tendons in front of the capsule at their insertion into the globe will leave this membranous sac as a basis or support for an artificial eye, and the muscles being still attached to this capsule will therefore move it and the glass eye lying on it in nearly as great degree as when an artificial eye lies against a stump of the globe left by disease or surgical interference.
