Prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with ocular defect: A case report

Eye loss can lead to significant physical and psychological distress due to facial deformity. Rehabilitation options currently revolve around ocular prostheses, where resin has proven to be an effective material choice. Our clinical report explores a semi-customized approach, combining a stock iris with a customized sclera, which balances the advantages and disadvantages of both standard and custom prostheses. This solution aims to provide both esthetic appeal and functional effectiveness for individuals adjusting to the loss of an eye.

Abstract

Eye loss can lead to significant physical and psychological distress due to facial deformity. Rehabilitation options currently revolve around ocular prostheses, where resin has proven to be an effective material choice. Our clinical report explores a semi-customized approach, combining a stock iris with a customized sclera, which balances the advantages and disadvantages of both standard and custom prostheses. This solution aims to provide both esthetic appeal and functional effectiveness for individuals adjusting to the loss of an eye.
