Abstract: Loss of eye, apart from impaired vision has a detrimental effect on the psychosocial wellbeing of an individual. The replacement of the lost eye as soon as possible after the surgery is necessary to improve social acceptance and quality of life. Multidisciplinary management and team approach between surgeon and prosthodontist are essential in providing accurate and effective rehabilitation and follow-up care for the patient. Although various treatment modalities are available it may not be advisable for all the patients due to some medical conditions or economic factors. The present article describes a simplified technique for the fabrication of a Room Temperature Vulcanized (RTV) silicone orbital prosthesis to achieve optimal fit and esthetics.
