Management of upper eyelid defect with silicone prosthesis: A non-invasive aesthetic approach

An enucleated ophthalmic socket's prosthetic rehabilitation is of paramount significance since an eye defect undermines self-esteem and results in aesthetic and psychological issues. In many cases the orbital fat redistributes downwards along with the deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) which has an adverse cosmetic result. An ocular prosthesis alone creates a staring appearance hence not providing the intended aesthetic outcome. This case report presents a novel technique of combing a silicone eyelid prosthesis with a customized ocular prosthesis of appropriate contour, size and colour to create life like appearance.
