Restoration of an atrophic eye socket with custom made eye prosthesis, utilizing digital photography. Indian Journal of Dental Research. 2011 May-Jun; 22(3): 482-485.http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/140048Ocular defects may cause several ocular and orbital disorders, which require surgical intervention. These defects are psychologically disturbing for the patients, and therefore, they require immediate management and rehabilitation by a team of specialist. Ocular prosthesis may be either readymade (stock) or custom made. Fabrication of a custom ocular prosthesis allows for a range of variations during construction. The iris can also be custom made by ocular painting or by digital photography. The optimum cosmetic and functional results of a custom-made prosthesis enhance the patient's rehabilitation to a normal life style. This paper elaborates the technique for fabrication of a custom-made ocular prosthesis for an atrophic eye socket utilizing digital photography.enDigital photographyocular prosthesisstock eye shellAgedAnophthalmos --pathologyAnophthalmos --rehabilitationAtrophyEye, ArtificialHumansMaleOrbit --pathologyOrbit --surgeryOrbital ImplantsPhotographyProsthesis Design --instrumentationProsthesis Design --methodsReconstructive Surgical Procedures --methodsArticle
