Thanks for putting up your query. There can be more than one causes for your daughter's eye problem. The ball implant put after the enucleation/evisceration could have migrated. Also, there is a possibility that the prosthetic eye needs to be changed as the orbital socket would have expanded with growing age. You need to consult an Oculoplasty consultant (including myself) who specializes in this type of reconstruction. Hope this helps.

Next Steps

set up an Oculoplasty consultant appointment.
