Patient evaluation
• For ocular defects
– Prognosis estimation
– Physical evaluation
– Muscular evaluation
– Desires and expectations of the patient
– Counselling the patient
• For orbital defects
– Pre-operative evaluation better than post-operative
– CT, MRI, FNAC useful.

Treatment planning
• Patient centered model
• Multidisciplinary
• Initial visit – determine treatment needs and confirm them with
patient
• Discuss these needs with team members – process and outcome
• All the pre-requisites should be planned
• Patient confirms regarding the procedure after consultation
• Signed consent
• Start treatment

Treatment planning - steps
• Planning Retention
• Moulage impression and working cast fabriction
• Pattern fabrication and try-in
• Craniofacial implants placement followed by impression
• Cast modification
• Pattern try-in
• Processing
• Insertion and maintenance
Methods of retention
• Extra-ocular muscles

Complications
• Tissue irritation
• Inadequate peri-orbital support
• Recurrence of tumor
• Implant exposure
• Conjunctival thinning
• Discharge
• Pyogenic granuloma formation (excess healing tissue formation),
• Rarely persistent pain or discomfort
Conclusion
To meet challenges and surpass them is the basic means survival of
the fittest.
With efficiency and uncompromising efforts, this task becomes
easier.

Editor's Notes

  • #5 Stigmatisation Orbital evisceration Orbital enucleation Increased life expectancy & effort to sustain the competition increased demand on prosthodontists
  • #6 5600 BC - artificial eye or eye transplant in Shalivahan Shaka Parva in the book called “Garbhopanishad”. 444 AD - eye surgeries were performed in Nalanda Vidyapith under Shri Nagarjunbharda. 632 AD - Shri Charak, Shri Shushrut and Shri Vagbhat operated to correct disfigurements. 633 AD - King Shashankdev of Vikramshila region has awarded an eye made of gold as a trophy to Acharya Prashastpad for his work in eye surgery on patients who had lost their eyes due to small pox Since 1446 Portuguese Doctors introduced their system of medicine. From 1670 the British introduced the Greek Medicine which is followed to this day. 18th and 19th centuries – cryolite glass eyes by Ludwig Muller, majorly produced by Germany, PMMA popularized in Europe and Germany The stock eyes available in the market today are made from low-grade plastic
  • #7 Conformer : word material Ocular prosthesis: Orbital prosthesis Facial prosthesis Orbital prosthesis combined with Obturator
  • #9 Core team and full team
  • #11 location and size of the defect, tissue mobility or lack there of, undercuts, and the material weight of the final prosthesis. nonporous silicone, hydroxyapatite, or porous polyethylene implants The nonporous, silicone implant ensures eye motility through “surface tension at the conjunctival-prosthetic interface” that is transmitted directly to the implant. Silicone implants come in sizes ranging from 14mm-20mm. Hydroxyapatite and polyethylene are both porous implants. Adv - fibrovascular ingrowth and permanent integration with orbital tissues
  • #12 location and size of the defect, tissue mobility or lack there of, undercuts, and the material weight of the final prosthesis.
  • #22 Identifying and mixing base color Trial and error method Computerized color formulation
