Profile: SNG Prosthetic Eye Institute offers custom artificial eye care. Our magnetic attraction system is ideal for prosthetic eye wearers to increase the motility of the prosthetic eye. The system contains a non-magnetic titanium screw that is placed in the medpor implant and is completely covered with socket tissue at the time of surgery. The ocularist can then fabricate a custom prosthesis with small 1 mm thick magnet(s) in the back of the prosthesis. The ocularist will determine the number of magnets to use to adjust the magnetic coupling force between the prosthesis and the implant. The magnet(s) are buried within the back of the prosthesis and covered with the same acrylic material used in making the prosthesis. The result is that the socket tissue is not exposed to the magnetic material. The magnets are only placed in the prosthesis; therefore there are no concerns about reverse polarity between the implant and the prosthesis.
