Abstract
AbstractEyes are among the first features of the face to be noticed. Loss of an eye due to congenital, traumatic, or pathologic etiologies causes disfigurement and loss of sensory feedback. It leaves a psychological impact on the patient; thus, prosthesis should be provided at the earliest to raise the spirits of the afflicted. Iris positioning is one of the important steps in fabricating customized ocular prosthesis. In facial asymmetry cases, comparison of both irises together can be a major disadvantage. This case report illustrates the use of a regular eyeglass in one technique and the use of a bioart facebow in the second technique for centering of iris in a customized ocular prosthesis to overcome the disadvantages of earlier used standard techniques (McArthur’s ocular locator and fixed calliper, pupillometer, visual judgement, and graph grid) of iris centering.
