Passionate about eyes
Your eyes are the mirror of your soul and our mission is to give you back your confidence through your new eyes.
Belgium Ocularists is the leading Belgian manufacturer specialised in highly realistic ocular prostheses. All our ocular prostheses and scleral lenses are hand-painted using different techniques to get as close as possible to realism with incredible precision.
We offer top quality work thanks to more than 30 years’ experience.
We are ocularists and welcome you at our various practices throughout Belgium. To bring that sparkle back to your eyes, trust us.
Our products
Our prostheses replace an eye that has had to be removed following an operation (enucleation, evisceration). A mould of the eye socket is made in order to create a custom-made resin ocular prosthesis. The iris and the blood vessels are painted by hand for greater realism. These ocular prostheses are made to measure for each individual and ensure real comfort.
These lenses are offered to people who still have their eye but it has become non-functional and unsightly due to an illness, an accident or a congenital malformation. Our rigid scleral lenses are entirely painted by hand. These will mask the unsightly part of the damaged eye to give it a new look.
Our soft scleral lenses are unique in Belgium. We usually suggest them to mask a convergent or divergent strabismus and they are available with or without dioptre correction. It’s a truly aesthetic solution for your eyes.
We recommend these lenses for a depigmentation (discoloration) of the iris. They are placed on the eye like a traditional contact lens, with or without correction from + to -30, instantly bringing your eyes back to life.
Or facial prostheses, replace or restore a missing or altered part of your face as faithfully as possible. These silicone prostheses are intended for patients with head and neck cancer or severe facial trauma (accident, burns, …) involving a loss of the orbital content as well as its annexes (eyelids, nose, …).
A prosthesis like a painting
There are several techniques that can be used to create an ocular prosthesis. At Belgium Ocularists, we’ve chosen the one we believe is closest to reality: entirely hand painted. For our team, the iris, the sclera and the blood vessels are elements of a paintings that we want to make as realistic as possible. We work with natural pigments, guaranteed hypoallergenic products, and all hygiene standards are scrupulously respected.
