FOR COSMETIC RESTORATION
AND NATURAL APPEARANCE
WHAT IS AN ARTIFICIAL EYE ?
An artificial eye, also known as an ocular prosthesis, is a custom-made medical device designed to replace an absent natural eye following removal due to injury, disease, or congenital conditions. While it does not restore vision, it serves important cosmetic and psychological functions by maintaining facial symmetry and supporting eyelid movement. Artificial eyes are typically crafted from medical-grade acrylic and are carefully painted to match the appearance of the remaining natural eye. In some cases, they are fitted over an orbital implant placed during eye removal surgery. The goal of an artificial eye is to help patients regain a natural look, restore self-confidence, and support proper function of the eye socket and surrounding tissues.

How Artificial Eyes Work
Crafted from medical-grade acrylic, each prosthesis is meticulously painted to match the color, size, and detail of the remaining natural eye, allowing for a lifelike and symmetrical look. Although artificial eyes do not restore vision, they help maintain the structure of the eye socket, support eyelid function, and enhance facial aesthetics. By providing a realistic appearance and improving overall comfort, artificial eyes play a vital role in emotional and social well-being for individuals who have lost an eye.
Who Needs an Artificial Eye?
They are ideal for patients seeking to restore facial symmetry and a natural appearance after eye loss. Artificial eyes can also support the overall health of the eye socket by maintaining its shape and preventing tissue collapse. In addition to cosmetic restoration, they provide emotional and psychological benefits, helping individuals regain self-esteem and confidence in social and personal interactions.
WHY ARTIFICIAL EYE ?

Custom-designed to match the shape, size, and color of the remaining eye, it helps maintain facial symmetry and a natural look.
