Our personally customised prosthetic shells are meticulously made to meet each of our patients’ specific requirements.
Each and every artificial eye we create is hand painted to match the functional eye.
Our prostheses are extremely detailed, taking into consideration the colour pigmentations of the iris and the blood vessels of the sclera (the white of the eye).
The iris is measured to match the sighted eye, centrally aligning the pupil.
These prosthetic units are glazed so that the colour is locked in for a lifetime.
In cases where both eyes need an ocular prosthesis we go as far as matching the eye colour to that of the family, taking genetic colouring into account. Our Ocularist is also expert in ensuring facial balance by modifying the shape of the shell or altering the volume of the eye in cases of ptosis (for example) where a drooping lower lid can cause an imbalance.
We take pride in our very personalised service, ensuring that our patients are tenderly cared for from their first consultation through to the eye’s fitting and aftercare.
We manufacture custom-made, individually crafted and hand-painted ocular prosthetics as well as supplying and fitting a range of stock eyes.
