Prosthetic Eye (Ocular Prosthesis) – Description
A prosthetic eye, also known as an ocular prosthesis or artificial eye, is a custom-made medical device designed to replace an absent natural eye following surgical removal due to trauma, infection, or disease. It is crafted from high-quality biocompatible acrylic materials and hand-painted to match the patient’s remaining eye for a natural appearance.
The prosthesis fits comfortably over the healed ocular socket or integrated implant and helps maintain the natural structure of the eyelids and surrounding tissues. While it does not restore vision, it significantly improves cosmetic appearance, facial symmetry, and the patient’s psychological well-being.
Modern ocular prostheses offer:
- Lightweight and durable construction
- Highly realistic iris and scleral detailing
- Smooth, polished surface for comfort and reduced irritation
- Easy maintenance and long-term stability
- Custom fitting by an ocularist for optimal comfort and movement
This Artificial Eyes is commonly used in ophthalmology and maxillofacial rehabilitation to support patients after enucleation, evisceration, or congenital eye absence.
