Anophthalmia Prognosis The loss of vision caused by the defect is not treated, so there is no prognosis for Anophthalmos. [hxbenefit.com]

The prenatal diagnosis, that is now available, permits the early diagnosis of these diseases and the awareness to other malformations or signs that may preview the prognosis, which must be carefully explained to parents. [elsevier.es]

Prognosis For anophthalmia, prosthetic eyes should be seen by a specialist two to three times per year to assess fit, mobility, and smoothness. They are usually well tolerated and have good appearance and mobility. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
