Abstract

The eyes are one of the most vital organs of perception. Replacement of such crucial organs needs expertise and precision. To achieve esthetics in an ocular prosthesis, the accurate positioning of the iris is cardinal. The aim of a maxillofacial prosthodontist is to bring back the appearance of the patient to fit into the norms of society. This case report presents a case of customized ocular prosthesis fabricated with the help of a grid graph and spectacles to locate the exact three-dimensional position of the iris.
