PROSTHESIS MAINTENANCE
We recommend that you have your prosthesis checked and polished by your ocularist every six months to ensure the comfort and health of your eye socket, the longevity of your prosthesis, and the accuracy of the fit of your prosthesis.
Polishing appointments are usually thirty minutes in duration and allow the ocularist to check the prosthesis for any changes that may have occurred in your prosthesis.
To schedule an appointment, please call us at 503-675-1320 or Toll-Free at 1-800-200-0908.

Do you have difficulty getting to our locations?
If traveling to our office is difficult, you can ship your eye to our office so we can inspect, sanitize, and polish your prosthesis without you being in our office. Please call LaNette, our office manager, for shipping instructions.
When you call, you will schedule an appointment just as you would if you were coming into the office yourself. This way, we can update your insurance and contact information if necessary and set aside the time in our schedule. Once we receive your prosthesis, we will inspect, sanitize, and polish it then ship it back to you via FedEx Ground. We will call to let you know when your prosthesis is on its way back to you.
Please note that this option is ONLY for patients who have difficulty traveling to our office for prosthesis check-ups. Should any work need to be done on the prosthesis that requires your presence in the office, we will contact you to schedule an appointment. This method does not replace the need to be seen by an ocularist if your prosthesis becomes ill-fitting or is giving you any other problems.
