( CNN ) -- Victoria Wilcher -- the 3-year-old Mississippi girl whose family claimed was asked to leave KFC because of her appearance -- will be fitted for a prosthetic eye . Victoria , who lost sight in her right eye and was left with severe facial scars after a pit bull attack , will meet with Raymond Peters , an ocularist who hopes to outfit her with a prosthetic eye this week at his office in Naples , Florida . An ocularist is a trained technician who makes prosthetic eyes . Peters said he does n't care about the controversy surrounding what her family said happened to her at KFC . He just wants to help a child in need . `` That 's another world as far as I am concerned . That 's not going to affect me with how I help the child , '' he said of the KFC incident . `` I am focused on this child , and if that did happen , it 's sad because it is a double tragedy for the child . '' Victoria 's grandmother , Kelly Mullins , took to Facebook last month to tell a story about how Victoria , who wears an eye patch and eats through a tube , was told to leave a KFC in Mississippi because her appearance was disturbing to other patrons . The story went viral . Online fundraising campaigns brought in thousands , including $ 30,000 and an apology from KFC . But veracity of the story has since been called into question . A pair of investigations found no proof she was ever asked to leave KFC and a local newspaper also cast doubt on the family 's story . Both Peters , who has donated his services and assisted with travel accommodations , and Mullins spoke to CNN Sunday about Victoria 's road to recovery . `` She do n't have an eye socket and no cheekbone , '' said Mullins . `` We had to put her back in diapers because of the wounds on her legs . She ca n't pull things up and down on them . The wounds will bleed , and she screams bloody murder . '' Not knowing the full extent of the damage , Peters said he is not even sure if an artificial eye is a feasible option . But that is not going to stop him from trying . `` I will help her as long as I am able , '' he said . `` We do n't want this child to walk in the shadows . '' Despite saying it had n't found proof that one of its restaurants mistreated the girl or her grandmother , KFC said it will still honor its commitment to donate $ 30,000 to assist with Victoria 's medical bills . `` We hope everyone keeps Victoria in their thoughts and prayers , '' the chain said in a statement last month . `` She will certainly be in ours .
