Abstrakt: |
Loss of an eye can be a traumatic experience for a patient. The subsequent formation of scar tissue prevents the performance of daily function and, more important, is accompanied by social isolation. To ensure a permanent prosthesis, appropriate closure of the socket is proposed. A conformer is a good method to carry out such a closure. We propose a manually adjustable conformer for the socket reconstruction that is specially used for the first time for this purpose. |
