Objective: To reveal the long-term outcomes of enucleation and secondary orbital implantation surgeries employing nonabsorbable surgical mesh-wrapped acrylic orbital implants for various reasons. Methods: A retrospective interventional study of 48 eyes that underwent primary or late primary enucleation and secondary orbital implantation using polyester mesh-wrapped acrylic orbital implants, between 2012 and 2021. Patient demographics, diagnosis, prior ophthalmic surgery, implant size, follow-up periods, and implant-associated complications were evaluated. Results: The records of 36 patients who underwent primary or late primary enucleation and 12 who underwent secondary orbital implantation due to sphere extrusion were evaluated. Patients’ mean age was 38.7 (range: 2–75) and the mean follow-up period was 48.3 months (range: 24–72 mo). Major causes for surgeries were trauma and malignancies (54.1% and 33.3%, respectively). No complications, such as conjunctival dehiscence, implant exposure or extrusion, contracted socket, or fornix insufficiency were observed in any patient during the long-term follow-up period postsurgeries. Conclusion: Using polyester mesh-wrapped acrylic orbital implants in enucleation and secondary orbital implantation surgeries proves to be a successful, safe, and cost-effective option.
