Prosthetic Rehabilitation of Ocular Defect- A Case Report.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Ocular defects with total loss of eyeball cannot be satisfactorily repaired by reconstructive surgery. Prosthetic replacement is one of the best treatment of choice for an ocular defect to restore not only the esthetics but also psychological well being of an individual. In the literature, many methods have been suggested for making ocular prosthesis. This paper describes two variants for the fabrication of ocular prosthesis with characterization to improve esthetics of the patient as well.
