    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Ophthalmic Surgery

    Background:

    • Implant extrusion is a potential complication in ophthalmic surgery.
    • Maintaining ocular integrity and function is crucial post-implantation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline essential surgical techniques for managing and preventing implant extrusion.
    • To detail methods for both functional restoration and cosmetic improvement.

    Main Methods:

    • Direct reimplantation of the extruded implant.
    • Reinforcement of surrounding tissues using patching techniques.
    • Cosmetic revision strategies including subperiosteal glass bead implantation and fornix reconstruction.

    Main Results:

    • Exacting surgical technique is paramount for successful outcomes in implant extrusion cases.
