Comparison of Two Techniques of Rehabilitating Ocular Defect with Custom Made Ocular Prosthesis
Ocular prostheses have a long history of successful use, and variations in the techniques and materials used have been introduced through the years. Advantages such as reduced treatment time and increased simplicity make this method a good alternative to conventional tedious methods of fabricating ocular prostheses. This case report outlines a sequence of steps for construction of cost effectiv...
متن کاملModified Impression Technique for Fabrication of a Custom Made Ocular Prosthesis
Making an impression of the anophthalmic socket to facilitate the design of a custom made ocular prosthesis is a common practice. Different impression techniques can be used for its fabrication. The modified impression technique described here requires minimum laboratory procedures as the preliminary impression, secondary impression and wax trial can be done as a single stage procedure.
متن کاملFabrication of a Custom Ocular Prosthesis
Defects of the eye may follow removal of a part of or the entire orbit. This results in the patient becoming visually, esthetically and psychologically handicapped. Restoring the defect with a silicone- or acrylic-based prosthesis not only restores esthetics but also gives back the lost confidence to the patient. This is a case report of a patient with a 'pthisical eye' and details the steps in...
متن کاملTridimensional titanium-printed custom-made prosthesis for sternocostal reconstruction.
A broad range of materials have been described for sternal reconstruction in order to guarantee not only the best preservation of respiratory mechanics, but also adequate mediastinal protection and acceptable cosmetic results. Today, titanium implants are preferred by many surgeons because of their optimal features. As a step forward, tridimensional (3D) laser sintering printing techniques allo...
متن کاملFabrication of custom made ocular prosthesis with three different impression techniques: a report of four cases
Loss of eye has a bad effect on the psychology of the patient. Eye prosthesis is fabricated to regain the patient’s confidence by meticulous replacement of the missing eye. Immediate fitting of an anophthalmic socket with an artificial eye may not always be possible, and a delayed prosthesis delivery may result in settling and sinking of the prosthesis into the socket, therefore requiring orbit...
