Abstract
The eye is a vital organ and an important component of facial expression. Several ocular and orbital disorders require surgical intervention that may result in ocular defects. Loss of an eye has a crippling effect on the psychology of the patient. Enucleation of the eye is therefore normally followed by fabrication of an ocular prosthesis to improve esthetics. The primary purpose of an ocular prosthesis is to maintain the volume of eye socket and create the illusion of a healthy eye and surrounding tissue. Treatment of ocular defects cases includes implants and acrylic eye prosthesis. Due to economic factors implants may not be advisable in all patients. A custom-made ocular prosthesis is a good alternative. A case of a custom-made ocular acrylic prosthesis is presented here, which had acceptable fit, retention and esthetics.
