Abstract
The loss of an eye is the most devastating, psychologically damaging experience for a patient. All hope to bring such patients back to their accustomed and comfortable life-style rests on a cosmetically acceptable prosthesis. An intra-orbital ocular prosthesis serves the purpose in those defects where the orbital margins are intact. Though the stock eye may match the natural eye's iris and sclera in color, the fit of the prosthesis to the tissue bed may not be as good as desired. Herein, a functional ocular impression technique is presented to achieve a better fit of the prosthesis to the defect area. This technique aims to combine cosmetic excellence with comfort for greater benefit to the patient.
