Double sphere orbital implantation in enucleation and evisceration.
A simple technique of orbital implantation of two hollow spheres at enucleation or evisceration is described. The procedure sufficiently replaces lost volume in the enucleated or eviscerated orbit, facilitates prosthesis motility, and diminishes simulated enophthalmos and superior sulcus depression. The risk of implant migration or extrusion is not increased.
