The centre is the oldest company in Russia creating prostheses of the most intricate and fragile human organ — the eye.
It was founded in June 1943, by an order of the Council of People’s Commissars as the Moscow Eye Prosthesis Factory. It was the industry pioneer in the Soviet Union.
Then, prosthetic eyes were made from milk glass, coloured glass and transparent glass.
Prosthetics today, glass remains one of the most flexible and practical materials and also offers excellent cosmetic properties.
The masters who produce plastic prosthetic eyes are much like artists, and work with a brush and paints. They look into your eyes and paint a portrait of "the mirror of your soul." Plastic prostheses are slightly bit heavier than glass ones, but are more resistant to the effects of temperature and last longer. Our oculists will help you choose the material best suited to your needs.
For clients who live too far from Moscow to enjoy a personal fitting, we can create a "mass" prosthesis. These are equivalent in quality to custom-made prostheses, and the only difference is that they are chosen from ready-made tables and catalogues, based on the desired color, size and shape.
Several research institutes constantly develop new polymers for the Centre of Eye Prosthetics, and these materials will help perfect the prostheses we create.se materials will help perfect the prostheses we create.
