custom artificial eye
In the event of eye injury or disease, the eye may need to be completely removed. In this case, an opthalmologist performs a surgery called an enucleation. The healing time required varies with each patient. Generally 6 to 8 weeks is adequate. Then the fabrication of the prosthesis can start.
Polish and clean
Every six months, you should have the prosthesis cleaned and polished to remove any protein build-up that has accumulated on the surface of the eye. At that time, proper fit and cosmetic result will be evaluated.
