Contracted Socket

The contracted socket is a dreaded complication of anophthalmos, which leads to the shortening of the fornices, ultimately leading to an inability to retain a prosthesis. A timely and careful diagnosis is necessary to avoid the formation of this condition. This activity reviews the prevention, evaluation, and surgical management of contracted sockets with implants, prostheses, and grafts.
