There is a lot of info on the shanty about removing eyes.  Here is the method I like best that I posted there.

Take a Bic ballpoint pen and a paperclip.  Bend the inner wire loop out so the paper clip is flat and looks like an enlongated "S" shape.  Take the ink cartrige and the little plastic piece that holds it out of the pen. Jam the small loop of the paper clip in the end of the pen and bend the large wire loop at a slight angle so it is like a spoon.  

This eye scoop is practically free to make (especially if you make them at work) and it only takes a few seconds. They are harder to lose in your pockets of tackle box than a paper clip alone and it will scoop the eyes out unbroken every time - quick and easy.  

An old indidan trick for ya
I just squeeze the head just below the eye and they pop out use one motion of the thumb to dislodge it. no need to Carry any thing to remove them unless you don't have thumbs.
