Area of Science:

  • Maxillofacial prosthodontics
  • Ophthalmology
  • Plastic Surgery

Background:

  • Loss of an eye significantly impacts a patient's psychological state and facial aesthetics.
  • Maxillofacial prostheses are artificial substitutes used to restore facial structures.
  • Ocular prostheses aim to maintain eye socket volume and create a natural appearance.

Observation:

  • A custom-made ocular acrylic prosthesis was fabricated for a patient.
  • The prosthesis was evaluated for fit, retention, and aesthetic outcome.

Findings:

  • The custom ocular prosthesis demonstrated acceptable fit and good retention.
  • The aesthetic results were satisfactory, contributing to the patient's overall well-being.

Implications:
