Summary This study describes and evaluates the LigaSure for eye enucleation or exenteration in horses. According to the medical records of the Clinique Desbrosse, 17 horses underwent eye removal using the LigaSure between April 2005 and March 2009. It was applied at 7 different steps of the procedure and accounted for the different possible sources of bleeding. The Ligasure was also used to transect the optic pedicle in the 5 most recent cases. Very few complications were encountered with the technique described. Reliable vessel sealing and haemostasis was achieved in all horses.
