Orbital Deformity
Conditions
Brief summary
A straightforward, user-friendly removable orbital prosthesis is a practical choice for effective rehabilitation in such patients with defective eyes. One of the essential elements for a good recovery is the retention of the prosthesis. The prosthesis can be retained by using a spectacle frame, conformers, adhesives, osseointegrated implants, magnets, or buttons. Only osseointegrated prostheses in the maxillofacial region can use semi-precision attachments.
Detailed description
Aim: Using of eyeglasses with newly formed digitalized printed paper of mirrored photograph of an intact eye for orbital defected patients to restore the esthetic appearance. An evaluation of the quality of life for patients using temporalized eyeglasses with digitalized printed paper of mirrored photographs of a healthy eye.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in quality of life score | Through study completion, average 6 months | each person's medical chart. Participants will complete the Arabic version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument, Short Form (WHOQOL-BREF) before and after intervention. The 26- item WHOQOL-BREF Arabic version consists of two overall items measuring general QOL and health condition and 24 items that are universally adopted for the WHOQOL-BREF in four domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Each item will be rated on a 5- point Likert scale and the domain scores were transformed on a scale from 0 to 100 |
| Patient behaviour toward using the newly designed eye glasses | Through study completion, average 6 months | The 14-item visual function questionnaire (VF-14), is based on 14 vision-dependent activities performed in everyday life, and the difficulty undertaking each activity is rated Scores range from 0 to 100, and higher scores represent better visual functioning and less difficulty to perform daily activities. |
