What’s involved with a prosthetic fitting?

Your first consultation will start with a chat to discuss your needs and current frustrations. I’ll then take an impression of the socket which is very much a painless procedure.

A follow up appointment will then be made for approximately two weeks later to check the completed impression for fit and comfort - any necessary adjustments will be made at this stage.

Once we are both happy with the fit, centration of the pupil will take place and colours will be matched using both samples and photography. At this point, the shape is then sent off to be painted.

We know a well fitting, aestically appealing eye creates such positive impacts in your everyday life so we aim to complete the whole process within 6 to 8 weeks.
