Plastic eyeballs that fit fingers skin#

For patients with complex and extensive orbital defects, we build on our considerable clinical expertise and partnership with dental specialists to create effective prosthetic solutions.Ĭraniofacial bone anchored implants are small titanium fixtures that are surgically implanted during an outpatient hospital procedure. Your eye prosthetic will be life-like, comfortable, secure, durable and safe.

Plastic eyeballs that fit fingers skin#

We mimic the texture, color and translucency of your skin to create a prosthetic eye with a natural appearance. With every attention to detail, we incorporate natural hair to reproduce absent lashes and eyebrows. The ocular is encased within the silicone so that you are inserting a single prosthesis. We make the eyelids and surrounding tissue (orbital prosthesis) out of silicone and sculpt this to match your anatomy as closely as possible. We make the ocular (eyeball) portion of the prosthesis from laminated layers of acrylic (plastic) and paint each ocular prosthesis individually to match the unique detailed coloring of your intact eye. Our patients appreciate the practically invisible transition between their skin and their silicone prosthesis.Īn orbital prosthesis restores the eyeball and eyelids and may include the eyebrow and part of the forehead, nose, or cheek.

Medical Art Resources has perfected techniques that result in exceptionally thin and durable edges. Our patients need ocular prosthetics and orbital prosthetics (artificial eye and eyelids) for different reasons: congenital or birth difference eye cancer or tumor removal (enucleation or orbital exenteration), including childhood cancers such as rhabdomyosarcoma or retinoblastoma and traumatic injury – traffic accidents, burns, or other trauma.
