An efficient approach to iris button placement in ocular prosthetics

Abstract

The eyes significantly contribute to facial esthetics and possess substantial social and psychological implications. Thus, it is essential to create a precise and symmetrical ocular prosthesis that closely resembles the adjacent normal eye. This report presents a simplified technique for accurately measuring the size and positioning of the iris in a prosthetic eye. The proposed method is straightforward, practical, and cost-effective.
