Abstract：Objective To explore the surgical method and clinical efficacy of orbit evisceration combined with HA ocular prosthesis implantation.Methods Thirty-seven patients who underwent orbit evisceration combined with HA ocular prosthesis implantation were retrospectively reviewed.The patients' information,operation indications,and postoperative complications were recorded.The patient data,surgical indications,and postoperative complications were recorded.Results Except for 1 case of blepharoptosis combined with lower eyelid laxity,1 case of slight lower eyelid laxity,and 1 case of conjunctival sac stenosis,the remaining 34 cases reported good activity and satisfaction with the postoperative appearance.No ocular prosthesis implantation exposure or infection occurred.Conclusion Fascia sutured intraoperatively may lead to conjunctival sac stenosis.Instead,sclera and conjunctiva may be sutured layer by layer to achieve good postoperative results.It is important to adequately separate fascia and turn up the sclera in ocular prosthesis implantation.Sound surgical procedure and proper postoperative measures were the key for a positive prognosis.In this type of surgery,surgeons should fully pay attention to the details.
