Ocular rehabilitation is an essential part of palliative care in a
visually differently able individual. A range of variations persist during
construction and fabrication of an ocular prosthesis. It is given after
enucleation or visceration of the eye. The optimum functional and aesthetic
results of a custom-made ocular prosthesis helps in improvement of life style
of a patient in an effective way. Important factors for achieving acceptable
aesthetic and functional result are accurate reproduction of ocular defect and
proper duplication of natural iris. An inexpensive effective method of
fabrication of ocular prosthesis is introduced in this case report. A satisfactory
result is achieved by introducing this procedure. This custom-made prosthesis
allows reduction of laboratory procedures and fabrication time and improves
acceptance. It is part and parcel of palliative care offered by a sensible
healthcare professional. - See more at:
