39、pate more in society,” he said.The new printing approach involves taking a specialized image of a patients empty eye socket and of their healthy eye. These images are then processed and used to draft blueprints that can be sent to be 3D-printed in the lab. These 3D-printed eyes closely replicate the

40、 color, size and structure of the patients healthy eye and are particularly good at capturing the colored part of the eye, known as the iris, and the white part of the eye, called the sclera. Once finished, the eyes take 15 to 30 minutes to be installed by an ocularist, Reinhard said.“About 80% of a

42、 the software wouldnt be able to find a matching shape for the prosthetic eye,” Reinhard said.“More data are needed to see if this technique could also be used to make prosthetic eyes for children,which would require more regulation,” Reinhard said.8.
