the orbit and allow for realistic movement of an
ocular prosthesis. A variety of synthetic and
natural materials have been used as orbital
implants.

• Orbital Tissue Expander (OTE)

• Can be removed and replaced

• Does not require multiple surgeries

• Self sealing injection port

• Can easily be inflated or deflated without surgery

5

• Bioceramic Orbital Implants

• Easy to insert

• Low exposure rate

• Lightweight

6

• Mesh-Wrapped Bioceramic Orbital Implants

The mesh wrapping incorporated in this type of
orbital implant allows the muscles to be sutured
directly to the implant.
7

• Silicone Orbital Implants

Silicone implants are more pliable than acrylic,
and are also non-porous.
