Did you know?Your Artificial Eye has a Limbus. The white transition between your Iris(the brown part of your eye) and your Sclera(the white part of your eye) is called the Corneoslceral limbus, or as some doctors would call it the "Limbus". For years, I had experimented on applying the corneoscleral limbus to an artificial eye, and so far I have created many prosthesis that would have a soft white transition of the sclera to the Iris.
I'm still continuously improving the design, where someday, I will be also be able to make Circus Senilis, or the white ring in the iris coming from people who are in their 50's.

Recommendation There are many lubricants that can be used to alleviate Prosthetic Eye dryness. The difference between an Artificial Eye and a Natural Human Eye is that a Human Eye doesn’t usually need a more viscous substance, unless they have severe dry eye. As for an Artificial Eye, a more viscous substance is recommended to bring back the comfort of wearing the Prosthetic Eye. Some Examples that could serve as a lubricant: Artificial Eye Drops
Note: I recommend a more viscous Artificial tear especially to patients whose eyelids are partially opened and/or doesn't close close entirely when asleep or when blinking. Hard contact Lens Solution

My favourite part is painting the Artificial eye. During most of my free time, I tend to experiment on different ways to paint the eye. It's either I copy my own eye, or sometimes I just re-do some of
my patient's prosthetic eye. This young boy had his Ocular prosthesis a few months after his eye was Enucleated. The custom made artificial eye looked great, for me, especially when he wears his glasses. Parents were very happy of his Prosthetic eye, which makes me happy, too.
