This article describes a straightforward technique for indexing the ocular part of an orbital prosthesis from the anterior aspect. The iris of the ocular portion remains unaffected while using this technique. There is no damage to the moulage as indexing is done from the anterior aspect. This technique provides stability, prevents rotation of the ocular portion, and allows the moulage to be used multiple times. It is cost effective and requires minimal manipulation during processing.
