What is a scleral shell?

0

A scleral shell is similar to an artificial eye with the difference being the depth of the posterior (back part). A shell covers the eye that has not had a full enucleation (removal of the eye) and can be used with phtisical eye patients or those that have had injuries. Your ophthalmologist will refer you to have the proper item fit.
