Polishing the Prosthesis

Regular bi-annual maintenance visits to the Ocularist keep the prosthetic eye free from protein deposits, scratches and debris. It affords the Ocularist an opportunity to view the tissues of the eye socket and evaluate the back of the prosthesis and its relation to those tissues. Proper fit and prosthesis condition are key in maintaining excellent socket health.

In order to guarantee the shapes and colors that have been so carefully built into the prosthesis and assure that they are not destroyed or distorted by improper polishing, the prosthesis must be polished by a professional Ocularist.
