Blinking Orbital Prosthesis
Blinking orbital prosthesis that is synchronized to the blink of a healthy eye.
Project Overview
Patients of any gender or age may experience the loss or absence of their eye due to some type of accident, genetic defect, or disease. Prosthetic eyes are made to help these people have a greater sense of confidence and positive self-image. Our goal is to create an improved orbital prosthesis which can restore a truly natural appearance. Last semester we designed a mechanism to create a realistic looking blink. Our intention this semester is to reduce the size of this mechanism and to synchronize its blink with the blink of a healthy eye.
