Rehabilitation of facial defects is a complex task, requiring an individualized design of the technique for each patient. The disfigurement associated with the loss of an eye may result in significant physical and emotional problems. Various treat-ment modalities are available, one of which is the use of implants. Although implant-supported orbital prosthesis has a su-perior outcome, it may not be advisable in all the patients due to economic factors. The present article describes a simplified technique for the fabrication of a silicone orbital prosthesis by constructing a custom ocular prosthesis to achieve ideal fit and aesthetics. Multidisciplinary management and team approach are essential in providing accurate and effective rehabilitation.
