    Purpose. To analyze the structure of the rendering of orthopedic care to patients with anophthalmos from 2012 to 2018.

    Material and methods. In the laboratory of individual eye prosthetics – 3831 patients were assisted for the period from 2012 to 2018. Primary eye care was provided to 758 patients (19.7%), individual prostheses were selected in 1000 patients (26.1%), standard – 1158 patients (30.2%). In 61.1% – men, 32.7% – women, people under the age of 18 made up 2.5%. The average age of individuals with anophthalmus was 43.3±2.4 years.

    Results. In 2012 119 (20.1%) patients were initially prosthetic, in 2013. – 127 (20.3%), in 2014 – 100 (18.6%), in 2015 – 99 (20.2%), in 2016 – 92 (19.7%), in 2017 – 120 (20.1%), in 2018 – 101 (18.6%). During the analyzed period, there is a relative stability of the number of prosthetic patients per year and a high patient appealability for help. This fact contributes to the clinical examination of patients using eye prostheses.

    Conclusions: high-quality ocular prosthetics depends on the proper clinical examination of patients with anophthalmos and the timeliness of eye-prosthetic care provided.
