Lightbulb Visual Approach

Guy's,

Have been pondering over the issue of visual approaches and seperation for a while - perhaps someone can help me out?!

When cleared for a visual approach to an airfield, how do you apply the seperation standards that IFR traffic is inherently privalidge too? In particular, i'm interested in situations in which an a/c is cleared for a visual approach with other VFR/IFR traffic within the aerodrome immediate vicinity. In a non-radar environment, are you seperating traffic purely by visual means?

Please forgive my ignorance, i'm just interested to know how it's done!

Regards,
