EXENTERATION & RADICAL ORBIT CONDITIONS
Exenteration is not included within the range of our expertise.
Although on occasion we have taken on the challenge when
it only required an unusually large ocular prosthesis for
skin grafted sockets where the eyelids were retained, or
for the less radical cases where there was partial loss of
an eyelid or eyelids. Since our experience is only
in (medical grade) polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), we have
made several prostheses with durable acrylic eyelids.
The more extensive facial prostheses made of silicone that
have the appearance and feel of soft flexible skin, and require
either adhesives, attachments or internal fixation retention
devices, we would refer them to individuals skilled within
the special profession of Anaplastology.
