Evaluation of efficacy and complications: primary pediatric orbital implants after enucleation.

BACKGROUND Orbital implants are used routinely in pediatric patients at the time of enucleation. Complications, such as exposure, ptosis, and infection, may occur after implantation. Controversy continues regarding the rate of complications with newer implants in the pediatric population. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of orbital implants on children whose eyes have been enucleated. METHO...

Extra-conjunctival Orbital Implants.

Magnetic orbital implants.

Sixty-six consecutive cases undergoing enucleation with the insertion of the Roper-Hall magnetic implant at the Birmingham and Midland Eye Hospital (BMEH) were followed up to re-establish the rate of extrusion. It was possible to study the records of all 66 patients. An extrusion rate of 1.5% was found.
