The conformer is changed every few weeks the first two years of life. After that, a painted prosthetic eye can be fitted for the childs socket. The prosthetic eye can be cleaned with mild baby soap and water. Rubbing alcohol should be avoided because it may damage the prosthetic eye. Children need to be checked regularly to ensure the fit and size is appropriate.A Cochrane Review published in 2016 asked the question would the type of material used to make the prosthetic eye affect the success of the operation? Prosthetic eyes can be made from two types of material; porous or non-porous material. "If the material is porous then the artificial eye can become integrated into the body because new blood vessels can grow into the material. If the material is non‐porous, then the artificial eye remains separate from the rest of the bodys tissue." After assessing three studies, the review concluded that there wasnt enough evidence to conclude which material was better. Cosmetic surgery
If the proper actions are not taken to expand the orbit, many physical deformities can appear. It is important that if these deformities do appear, that surgery is not done until at least the first two years of life. Many people get eye surgery, such as upper eyelid ptosis surgery and lower eyelid tightening. These surgeries can restore the function of the surrounding structures like the eyelid in order to create the best appearance possible. This is more common with people who have degenerative anophthalmia.
