Wow ! That's amazing !

That is amazing, I immediately thought of that poor pirate in the Carribean with the wooden one and thought perhaps it was for real use.

Hi Scott, that eye is really well done, you should be really pleased!  Janet

Yes -  that is brilliant, I really love it,  do they still use glass eyes for people who lose an eye, or are they made out of something lighter now?

Just a thought ;-)




Fessler Forge

They are made of acrylic now, lighter, less fragile and easier to mass produce.

Here is a video of a glass eye maker, maybe the last glass eye maker out there (for prosthetic purposes.) It's kind of sad, him being the last of an amazing art. It's an interesting video to watch.

Art reaches its greatest peak when devoid of self-consciousness. Freedom discovers man/woman the moment he/she loses concern over what impression he/she is making or about to make.

Hi Scott,

great work, can't believe thats only the third one you've made, it's brilliant. I've seen that glass eye artist online before, very exacting work. I think he makes up the eye as the patient sits with himso he can match it up!
You could take over when he retires!
