Prosthetic eye implantation is a significant intervention for individuals facing ocular trauma or congenital defects. We present the case of an eight-year-old boy who underwent prosthetic eye implantation following enucleation due to a severe injury. The patient had suffered from impaired vision and psychological distress due to the visible absence of his natural eye. The prosthetic eye not only restored his facial symmetry but also revitalized his self-esteem and confidence. This case report highlights the successful outcome of prosthetic eye implantation in pediatric patients and underscores the importance of addressing both physical and psychological aspects of ocular trauma in young individuals.
义眼植入对于面临眼外伤或先天性缺陷的个体而言是一项重要的干预措施。我们报告一例8岁男孩的病例，该男孩因严重眼外伤在眼球摘除术后接受了义眼植入。由于肉眼可见的患眼缺失，患者视力受损且遭受心理困扰。义眼不仅恢复了他面部的对称性，还重振了他的自尊和信心。本病例报告突出了小儿患者义眼植入的成功结果，并强调了在年轻个体中解决眼外伤身体和心理方面问题的重要性。
