  • I have lost my eye, and the muscles, tissue, eye lids eyebrow. Do u know any one who can create a prothestic eye for me? I have heard of some people who lose thier eye and eye tissue and muscles to cancer, can have a clip on artifical eye with eye lids etc, that clip on to metal studs secured to the cheek bone.

  • It's amazing to see what they can do with so many disabilities. It feels good to know that if anything were to happen, it's not the end of the world. :)

  • why did you put a watermark on this you moron

    this does not belong to you

  • Ouch?

  • @TheYellowScreen But wouldn't there be an empty socket if the eye wasn't there? You would need something to hold the fake eye used in this video in place...

  • @McFuckNuggets

    Artificial eyes have to be removable for cleaning and replacement. If they were balls they'd be stuck in the socket permanently which would not be good as artificial eyes need to be lubricated regularly and DO wear out eventually. And since it's only for appearances, a whole ball isn't necessary anyways.

  • OH my! looks sooo real! great job there!

  • Id be so happy if I loose an eye in an accident and one so realistic! these ppl are miracle workers!

  • wait, so if eyeballs are, well, balls, then why are artificial eyes not shaped like balls as well?

  • the whole times ii felt like i was going to throw up. But it was very interesting
