Journal Title: International Journal of Dental Science and Innovative Research (IJDSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Prosthetic rehabilitation of ocular prosthesis can be done by stock eye or a customized eye. Although option of stock eye is easy and time saving, still most of the patients complain of discomfort even after appropriate adjustment because of insufficient adaptation to underlying soft tissues. In such cases customized ocular prosthesis is always preferred. The purpose of this technical procedure is to provide a well fitting prosthesis to the patient, reducing the number of laboratory steps and appointments for fabrication of ocular prosthesis. This article describes a hybrid technique using stock iris and customized sclera blank.
