Correcting superior sulcus deformities.
There are many different procedures to camouflage the superior sulcus deformity that occurs after an evisceration or enucleation. We have studied 5000 anophthalmic patients. In every case the previous adaptation of the prosthesis was satisfactory. We noted the frequency of the superior sulcus deformity, and we would like to discuss silicone oil infiltration and a modified polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) banana superior sulcus implant. The silicone oil infiltration is easily performed and the results are permanent.
