Abstract:
Alloplastic materials are used as an adjunct to many types of ophthalmic surgery. This article reviews recent advancements in the use of alloplastic materials for orbital surgery, with emphasis on anophthalmic socket and bony orbital reconstruction. Several new porous materials and resorbable implants offer exciting prospects in the management of anophthalmos and orbital fractures.
