An ocularist, like Starla, is someone who specializes in the fabrication and fitting of ocular prostheses for people who have lost one or both eyes due to trauma, disease, or birth defects. The fabrication process for a custom made ocular prosthesis typically includes taking an impression of the enucleated eye socket, creating a wax pattern from that impression and then fitting the ocular prosthesis to the person's socket, working with an acrylic model made from that final fitting of the wax model; hand-painting the iris and sclera while the patient is present to match the coloring to their companion eye, then processing and polishing the ocular prosthesis. In addition to creating the prosthetic eye, the patient is shown how to carefully care for and handle the prosthesis.
