Many people do not understand what a prosthetic eye is and how it functions, in fact it is not typically a glass eye and it is not a round ball. That is the implant that goes inside. The prosthetic eye is removable as you will see in this video where ophthalmologist and Oculoplastic surgeon, Dr Zac Keenum, explains how prosthetic or fake eyes work. Needing a fake or prosthetic eye can occur after injury or loss of vision with resultant pain and after eye surgeries such as enucleation and evisceration. Hopefully, your understanding of fake / prosthetic eyes will be improved after this video.

My mom has a prosthetic eye also from a childhood accident. She has the prosthetic sewn in and then a big contact type of ‘lens’ similar to your grandma’s that she wears on it. She doesn’t take it out too often. She has to have it chiseled down and replaced every 10 or so years by the ocularist. It’s beautiful and actually tracks really well with her remaining eye. The occularist did a great job on it. I honestly forget often that she only has one eye.

quite interesting. just went through this for the exact same reasons. its only been a couple of weeks since I received my prosthesis. The whole experience was very educational, and a little scary. so happy to see your experience was a good, as mine is going so far. when you go through something like this, you often feel you are alone. Comforting to find out otherwise. thanks for sharing

Thank you for such educational content! My mom just got a prosthetic eye ❤ she had an accident as a toddler and had some surgeries on her eye. She didn’t have much vision in it most of her life. Unfortunately, she had a bad fall 5 years ago and that affected her eye that was already fragile from past surgeries. It caused some damage to the eye aesthetically and she could always feel the stitches from the emergency surgery. Her vision pretty much went but she’s always relied on her right eye. She just got the prosthetic eye and we’re awaiting the lens appointment. This is very reassuring ❤

Do you offer inplant surgery to install an implant that’s connected to the existing eye muscles which then has a post attached in order to mount the prosthetic eye to for full movement?

I’ve been wearing a sclera shell for many years after disfigurement from surgery to reattach a retina. Do you have any advice for what to do when your eyelid shrinks in size from wearing a shell for so long?

I can’t really comment on your specific situation since I don’t know your medical history. However, I will say most of the patients I do this surgery on don’t have any pain after.

@doctoreyeballmd7493 11 месяцев назад
Im sorry to hear that. Often the prosthetic can be left in and the ocularist can take it out in office to clean / polish it. I have patients who will leave them in for 6 months and just have it polished 1-2 x per year in office.

God bless you for sharing. Eastern Orthodox Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel recently had a prosthetic eye placed on him. The reason is became a few months ago an Islamic extremist ran up to him while giving a public sermon on Jesus and attacked his face with a jack knife.
