You lost it in Iraq? Do you think many people with prosthetic eyes make them look obviously like something else than matching because it give them something of a "badge" and garners some sympathy? If it matches, nobody would care or ask..I would guess you milk this injury as often as possible. You volunteered for service. Taxpayers now pay for the eye..when you get tired of your cyborg eye and want a natural looking one..we will pay again. That's why a Doctor doesnt want to make one.

@Jcsharitz Luckly I dont need to ask for your permission to get my eyes. And milk it for sympathy? i dont need sympathy or people to feel bad about what happened. Im proud of my service so yes it is a badge. and you either have issue with the service or just are an ass. either way life must suck for you being so negative.

why are you wearing your cover without the embrel

Because its My Cover from Military school, Not Actual Army

I think there are other factors aswell .. fear of being discriminated by the board of American society of ocularists etc. It's a conservative field of practice.. I'd be keen to find more details about your Hollywood ocularist aswell! :)

True about the pressure from othere DR.s But they must remember in the end they work for us. And its not a normal medical field, Its Art as well.

Shane has a point they work for you so they need to stop bitching and make what ever you damn well please, i mean its not there decision. People get plastic surgery to makes themselves look a certain way and there doctors dont complain and they have to perform the possibly life threatening procedure.

My ocularist has agreed to make me a designed eye. He says he has made them before but I haven't seen his work. He is a real nice guy and had no problem with me asking for a designed eye. Here is his info, I hope he can help you. Ask for Jim Layton. Layton Optical

Does it really matter if he has a prosthetic eye. He was in Iraq he lost his eye trying to protect our Country. And you wanna say he got his eye like tht bc he wanted ppl to notice it. I think tht he should o wht ever he wants with his eye :3

When I had my second eye made, I asked about having a design on it (something int he future) and he said that many people have designs on their eyes. This is in Boston MA. I'm surprised that they rejected the idea. Not all insurances have the prosthetic rider so we have to pay for it out of pocket ($2500 for a scleral shell)

They are artists and should do what is asked of them.

My Husband lost his left eye in 2007 OEF. He got his Prosthetic made at Ericsons Labs in Kirkland Wa. He Wanted a eye with a design, like urs but the denied it. But the did slip just a white Mold in his case as a lil suprise for him. He was very excited. X room mates of ours had a party & his real looking Prosthetic was stolen so he just wears the white eye mainly.
