case_images: An evolution was done after 1 week [Figure 2a]. The current dimension of the conformer gave a harmonious status with the surrounding structure of the contralateral eye [Figure 2b]. Following the size conformer, a definitive prosthesis was fabricated and issued [Figure 2c].

case_images: The patient was given conformer therapy for 2 to 3 weeks [Figure 5a]. An evolution was conducted after 3 weeks, which included the esthetic overcoming of the deepening of the superior sulcus, which was apparently present, and the improvement of the tonicity of the muscles [Figure 5b]. The conformer was later transformed to customize the eye prosthesis, with the matching shade of the contralateral eye [Figures 5c and 6a, b].

case_images: A 58-year-old male patient who had lost his eye due to trauma was reported after evisceration [Figure 7a]. The deepening of the superior sulcus was also inevitable [Figure 7b]. Following the impression, a conformer was inserted and relined in different sizes to increase the eye opening movement [Figure 7c-e].
