Abstract

The eye is a vital organ as well as an important component of facial expression. The loss of eye has a debilitating effect on the patient's quality of life. Maxillofacial prostheses are artificial replacements that repair and replace stomatognathic and related facial structures. Disfigurement induced by loss of eyecauses severe physical and psychological anguish. Ocular prosthesis is the sole option for replacement of missing eye. For the manufacturing of the same, several materials and processes are employed. Among the various materials, resin has been proved to be the best. Using a stock eye or a customised ocular prosthesis can have advantages and disadvantages. We created a semi-customized ocular prosthesis with stock iris and customised sclera using our clinical report. This prosthesis combined the benefits of both stock and customized ocular prostheses, resulting in a functionally and cosmetically satisfying outcome.
