PURPOSE: To observe the effects of improved silica ball implantation enclosed by autologous reversal sclera. METHODS: After the enucleation of eye balls, we reversed, cleared the autologous sclera, enclosed the silica ball and implanted it in the operative eye. RESULTS: 30 cases with enucleation were implanted the prosthetic eyes. The follow-up period was 6 months to 3 years. The prosthetic eyes had the motility of 10 degrees to 25 degrees and the empty socket syndrome was effectively prevented. CONCLUSION: The sargical method can overcome the defect that prosthetic eyes cannot rotate after being implanted and has got satisfactory cosmetic effects.
