Brandon's Ocular Prosthetics

The clear piece that is first is called a conformer. It is what they use for the first 4-5 weeks so the new eye can heal. It has two holes in it to be breathable. The eye underneath looks like the inside of your lip. Pink flesh. Then I put the prosthesis in order that he received them. We are missing the 3rd one. Our children like to get them out and play with them. I gathered these and put them away in a bag so they wouldn't lose another one. Who knows we may find it someday. He out grows these about every 1-1 1/2 years. This last one lasted 2 1/2 years. We could of waited 6 months, but I wanted to get it now so the insurance would pay more of the cost. Plus he was getting alot of goop in the eye which can be from the old prosthesis. The goop is less, although if he is sick or has allergies it can increase. The blue thing is a suction to put on the prothesis and can be used to rotate, remove, or insert it if needed. Sometimes the fit is not the greatest and they tend to rotate more. The black mark on the bottom does not show while in the eye. The eyelid covers it. It is so I can check easier to see if it is rotated. The top of the first 2 prosthesis have a T on them to show where the top is. It is a little harder for me to see. Therefore, I have the black dot for a reference. This fits under the eyelidlike a huge contact. We do not need to remove it for cleaning. The Ocularist cleans it twice a year. It has to be polished by him to remove enzyme build up that cannot just be washed off..
