Customized ocular prosthetic rehabilitation: A case report on restoring aesthetics in patient with post traumatic eye defect

Individuals suffering from loss of facial structures undergo physical, social, and psychological challenges. Maxillofacial prosthesis restores and replaces stomatognathic and related facial features with artificial alternatives to improve patients’ looks and protect the integrity of the remaining facial structure. This promotes both physical and mental well-being. The sole means of rehabilitation for a lost eye is an ocular prosthesis. The same can be fabricated using a variety of materials and methods. Resin emerged as the superior material among the available options. There are benefits and drawbacks to both employing a tailored ocular prosthesis and the stock eye. We have fabricated a customized ocular prosthesis using a customized iris and sclera, which produced a functionally and aesthetically pleasing outcome.

Abstract

Individuals suffering from loss of facial structures undergo physical, social, and psychological challenges. Maxillofacial prosthesis restores and replaces stomatognathic and related facial features with artificial alternatives to improve patients’ looks and protect the integrity of the remaining facial structure. This promotes both physical and mental well-being. The sole means of rehabilitation for a lost eye is an ocular prosthesis. The same can be fabricated using a variety of materials and methods. Resin emerged as the superior material among the available options. There are benefits and drawbacks to both employing a tailored ocular prosthesis and the stock eye. We have fabricated a customized ocular prosthesis using a customized iris and sclera, which produced a functionally and aesthetically pleasing outcome.
