Prosthetic Lenses

Restoring appearance. Enhancing comfort. Personalized for your eyes.

Prosthetic contact lenses are custom-designed medical lenses created to mask ocular irregularities, improve cosmetic appearance, and in some cases enhance visual comfort or light control. Each lens is individually crafted to match your natural eye—or achieve a desired appearance—while prioritizing ocular health and safety.

What Are Prosthetic Contact Lenses?

Prosthetic lenses are custom-painted or digitally printed contact lenses designed to replicate the color, pattern, and depth of a natural iris. Unlike cosmetic lenses, these are medically prescribed and professionally fitted, often used for patients with congenital conditions, trauma, or post-surgical changes.

Who Can Benefit?

Prosthetic contact lenses may be recommended for individuals with:

• Aniridia or iris defects

• Corneal scars or opacities

• Coloboma

• Albinism

• Traumatic eye injury

• Post-surgical iris changes

• Unequal pupil size or shape

• Light sensitivity (photophobia)

Each case is unique, and candidacy is determined through a comprehensive eye evaluation.

What Prosthetic Lenses Can Do?

• Improve cosmetic appearance

• Mask discoloration or scarring

• Reduce glare and light sensitivity

• Enhance confidence and quality of life

• Provide a natural, realistic eye appearance

Our goal is to create a lens that looks natural, feels comfortable, and supports long-term eye health.

Fully Customized for You

Every prosthetic contact lens is tailored with precision:

• Custom iris color matching

• Hand-painted or digital detailing

• Pupil size customization

• Opacity control

• Soft contact lens materials

• Custom diameter and base curve

​​​​​​​No two lenses are the same—because no two eyes are the same.
