ABSTRACT

Trauma, cancer, and congenital defects may all result in the loss of an eye. This leads to significant emotional and physical challenges in an individual's life. In such cases, cautious preoperative, surgical, and prosthetic planning employing a multidisciplinary approach is essential for effective rehabilitation. Iris positioning is one of the crucial steps in the fabrication of a customized ocular prosthesis. Iris positioning is a technique-sensitive process, hence visual evaluation by itself could not provide reliable results. This case report illustrates a method of iris disk positioning on a custom-made ocular prosthesis using an adjustable trial frame. The advantage of the adjustable mechanism of the adjustable trial frame was utilized here to position the iris on the scleral blank. Since the iris disk on the ocular prosthesis was positioned in symmetry with that of the natural eye, the patient's aesthetics were restored.
