Explanation / Answer

The correct answer is :retract the upper and the lower eyelid to reinsert the artificial eye.

Explanation : After enucleation, that is the surgical removal of an eye, prosthetic eye or artificial eye is sought for. This artificial eye needs to be handled with care. Excess pressure shouldn't be applied on it. Therefore the first statement which talks of applying pressure to break suction isn't applicable. Also it is necessary to store the artificial eye only in normal warm water as excess of chemicals and solutions may cause permanent damage to it. Therefore the second and third statements are wrong. While removing the artificial eye the lower eyelid needs to be retracted and not the upper one to ensure easy removal. Therefore the preceeding statement is also wrong.

For reinsertion of the artificial eye initial retraction of upper eyelid followed by retraction of the lower eyelid is done. Thus the last statement is right and applicable.
