Description

Ankita Pathak and co-authors report a rebuilt artificial eye made with 3D printing and sublimation transfer. Losing an eye to a crash, a cyst, or surgery leaves a mark that weighs on the mind as much as the face. A wearer came to them unhappy: his prosthesis looked off-balance and dull beside his sound eye.

In their 2023 case report, the team blends bench craft with digital tools to copy the healthy eye with care. The sublimation step lays the fine color and pattern onto the printed form. Looks, comfort, and function all guide the fit, since the goal is a lifelike match. The authors share their refined workflow as a path for other clinics.
