appearance and confidence function. Eye socket examination showed healthy conjunctiva and
no infection. The treatment plan is making non-fabricated ocular prosthesis made from acrylic
resin. Management: The treatment procedure is carried out by stages namely eye impression
with custom trays eye using a double impression silicon printing material. Making the sclera
wax model, trying the sclera wax pattern, making acrylic sclera, trying acrylic sclera,
determining the location and diameter of the iris, painting the iris and pupil, completing
