Ocular prosthetics are mainly created to meet the aspect of esthetic consideration. The paint application in ocular prosthetics construction is remaining an option for Prosthodontist. This study aims to examine the effect of types of paint toward iris color change of the ocular prosthetics. Three black types of paint: oil paint (Maries Oil Color, China), automotive paint (Avian, Indonesia), and acrylic paint (Sakura, Japan) were used to paint paper disc to produce 27 iris ocular prosthetics. Chromameter was used to examine the first and the final color after acrylic processing using themicrowave. The measurement results in the process using Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage. One-way ANOVA test showed significant differences between the three types of paints on ocular prosthetics (p<0.05). The LSD test revealed that oil paint groups had more significant results than the automotive paint group and acrylic paint group, while the automotive paint group did not have significant differences with the acrylic paint group (p>0.05). Thus, it is conclusive that oil paint influences the iris color change of the ocular prosthetics.
Background: Losing eyeball is a process that caused both medically and psychologically traumatic. One of many drawback of losing eyeballs is vision loss.

The patient had been using previously fabricated ocular prostheses. Patient management are anamnesis, clinical examination, individual custom trays making, wax modeling and sclera try in, acrylic processing, and determining the location and diameter of the iris, and then the insertion of the prosthetic eyeball. Conclusion:Non-fabricated ocular prostheses can improve the patient's appearance, and by restoring the appearance would increase the confidence of patient and be accepted in his society.
