Ocular Prosthesis Surgery

What is ocular prosthesis surgery?

Ocular prosthesis surgery includes procedures designed to reconstruct or restore the appearance of the eye socket and provide support for an ocular prosthesis. It may be needed after the loss of an eye due to trauma, eye disease, tumors, or other conditions.

When is an ocular prosthesis needed?

An ocular prosthesis may be used after procedures such as enucleation or evisceration, when the eye has been lost or needs to be removed. The prosthesis is designed to restore a natural facial appearance and may also improve comfort and adaptation of the eye socket.

What specialist performs ocular prosthesis surgery?

Surgery may be performed by an ophthalmologist specializing in oculoplastic and orbital surgery. Depending on the case, an ocular prosthetist may also be involved in designing and fitting the prosthesis after surgery.
