We maintain the cleanliness with our cars, homes and most importantly, ourselves. It is essential to shower every day but, some people forget about their prosthesis eye or scleral shell eye.

Carole Lewis, B.C.O. emphasizes proper care and maintenance to all her patients because tissues are more valuable than the acrylic prosthesis eye or scleral shell. Maintenances prevent contamination, irritation and possible infection which lead to the deterioration of tissues.

When the eye’s vision has been lost, but the eye is not removed, a thin acrylic scleral shell is used to successfully correct the deteriorated appearance of the eye. However, this can be complex in many cases because the nature and physiology of the eye will be different in each individual.

At Esthetic Eyes in Beverly Hills, we have a new Patent-Pending on our Digital Keratoconus Scleral Shell™. Keratoconus is a degenerative condition of the eye in which structural changes within the cornea cause it to thin and change to a more conical shape than its normal round curve. With this new Patent-Pending, Carole Lewis, B.C.O. utilizes techniques to fit in all digital iris technology in a slender scleral shell fitting the most irregular cone-shaped corneas.
