Rockville, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/09/2018 -- An artificial eye improves the appearance of people who have lost an eye due to injury or disease. An artificial eye is also known as prosthetic eye or glass eye. Implantation of an artificial eye is preferred or recommended after an eye is removed surgically due to disease or damage. The implanted artificial eye supports the proper eyelid functioning. Injury, glaucoma, infection inside the eye and eye tumors are some of the reasons for removing the natural eye and implanting an artificial one. After the placement of natural eye with an artificial eye, a person will no longer have a vision in that eye. Artificial eyes cannot restore the vision of the person but it fills the cavity of the eye socket and serves as a cosmetic enhancement. Artificial eyes are generally made of an acrylic plastic polymer called polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). In addition, silicone polymers are also used to make artificial eyes. The shape of an artificial eye is like a shell. An artificial eye can move but often not as briskly as other healthy eyes. Artificial eyes are made from digital technology and have become so close to looking like real eyes.
According to the Society for the Prevention of Blindness, it is estimated that around 10,000 to 12,000 people per year lose and eye. Out of which around 50% or more eyes losses are caused by an accident.
