AbstractRetention of an orbital prosthesis plays a key role in treatment success and patient acceptance as does aesthetics. Though numerous retentive aids are available such as implants, adhesives, etc, the cost, surgical aspect, difficulty of use and allergic potential may compromise efficiency. This report describes the case of an 11-year post-enucleation poor retinoblastoma patient, in whom an unfavourable defect leads to a major prosthetic challenge (from point of view of retention and camouflage). This report describes a simple, economical, and user-friendly approach to obtain satisfactory retention and camouflage for such patients with spectacle cords and customised spectacles. Key Words: Oculo-orbital prosthesis, Spectacle, Cord.
