A worn artificial eye causes discomfort in the eye socket. The rough surface of the prosthesis can severely irritate the eye socket. The first sign of renewal of the prosthesis is increased lacrimation. The eye socket reddens and in the further course there may be thick, yellowish secretion. At this stage, ophthalmological help must already be sought to prevent the inflammation from spreading to the entire orbit. Regular inspection of the eye socket by the ophthalmologist and possible annual renewal of the ocular prosthesis by the expert ocularist ensures problem-free wearing of the artificial eye.
