Other Than Enucleation, How Pseudomonas In Eye Can Be Treated?

My mother has been recently diagnois with pseudomonas in her eye. A year ago she had a cornea transplant in that eye and the doctor removed it yesterday. After removing the implant he recommended enucleation. She is also suffering with a lot of pain. What other options are available to mother besides enucleation?
