  • Title: Correction of facial contour deformities with prefabricated sculptured implants.
    Author: Dortzbach RK, Alexander SC, Sutula FC, Hawes MJ.
    Journal: Ophthalmology; 1981 Sep; 88(9):908-16. PubMed ID: 7301307.
    Abstract:
    Close collaboration between the ophthalmologist and ocularist is essential to achieve the best results in the correction of facial contour deformities with prefabricated, sculptured implants. We used previously described techniques to make such implants with RTV-382 silicone and methyl methacrylate resin to correct facial defects. One patient with bony defects of the forehead and superior orbital rim, and another patient with a superior sulcus deformity illustrate the value of these procedures.
