The loss of an eye is an emotional and psychological setback to the patient. An ocular prosthesis is created to restore the lost anatomical structure and to correct the cosmetic defect. All hope to bring such patients back to their accustomed and comfortable life–style rests on a cosmetically acceptable prosthesis. The goals of treatment with ocular prostheses are to restore facial aesthetics and self–esteem to anophthalmic patients. Fabricated in acrylic resin, artificial eyes should be aesthetically pleasing, scratch–resistant and adequately polished. This article describes a clinical report of rehabilitation of post evisceration patient due to glaucoma of right eye with custom made artificial prosthesis using stock eye shell that can create aesthetically pleasing results.
