Official Title: Autologous Fat Grafting to Anophthalmic Sockets With PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Using a Closed Cannula Technique

Brief Summary: After people lose an eye, for whatever reason, they often experience fat atrophy of the tissues in the orbit. This leads to a sunken appearance that is often not correctable by a cosmetic shell prosthesis. Current techniques to correct this deformity are inadequate/ invasive. Injection of various gels (Restylane, Radiesse) are temporary had have their own disadvantages. This study seeks to demonstrate an improvement in the retention of injected autologous fat by mixing in autologous PRP (platelet rich plasma).

Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Fox, Donald Munro, M.D., P.C.

Current Primary Outcome: Improved retention of autologous fat injected into anophthalmic sockets [ Time Frame: 1-5 yrs ]

Non contrast MRIs of the orbits are obtained before, immediately after, and one year after injection of autologous fat mixed with autologous PRP (platelet rich plasma)


Original Primary Outcome: Improved retention of autologous fat injected into anophthalmic sockets [ Time Frame: 1-2 yrs ]

Non contrast MRIs of the orbits are obtained before, immediately after, and one year after injection of autologous fat mixed with autologous PRP (platelet rich plasma)
