Nice!!
I would LOVE to see a Magic 8-Ball prosthetic eyeball! Maybe with some built-in device so you can close your eye and when you open it, the answer slowly appears. I would totally contribute to a GoFundMe for that.
They have them. I may have to reconsider my GoFundMe.
A. I would totally donate to your GoFund Me (although me,personally would rethink the 8 Ball, but you do you) B. My uncle had an artificial eye from WWII and always had a spare. Keep me posted if you do a GoFundMe.
I’m not really gonna do s GoFundMe.
I was joking.
I have plenty spares. If I run out I got a patch, 
no parrot tho’, dang it!
Okay, I had to click on this one.
Someone help me out. There’s a horror story about a lady with a glass eyeball who leaves it in a jar so she can spy on her husband in the bedroom.
I think it’s from a book of short stories recommended by someone here but I cannot recall the author. Any takers?
Beck, you ain’t spyin’ on anyone are you?
Why yes, yes I am. All eyes on thee. You know who you are.
I think @aceplace57 told tale about that. Or maybe it was someone else from Arkansas. @carnivorousplant ?
I’m sure it’s a tale often told.
Several years ago, I grew a couple cotton plants from seed in a big pot on my porch. I picked the cotton and did some crafty stuff with it, including making some little sheep with cotton bodies and googly eyes.
You can’t buy a small amount of googly eyes, though, so I have a bunch left over and ever since then I’ve wondered WTF to do with the rest of 'em. Now I know!
As far as prosthetic eyes, I might just go with one that’s a different color than my other eye. I’ve got olive drab eyes, so a brilliant blue one would certainly make people look twice. If they asked about it, I’d just tell 'em I’m part husky.
I’d go for a simple skull and crossbones or maybe a mirror. I don’t know about the Magic 8 Ball, Beck. What if some creeper hit on you, and your eyeball said, “Outlook good”?
This reminds me sof when some eyedrops docs were using to fight rejection of my corneal graft gave me a mild chemical burn on my left eye. I had to wear a patch for a few days. My high school students were aghast when they saw me, and one kid asked if my eye would fall out, so I told my dad’s old joke:
What did the teacher say when her glass eye fell out and rolled across her desk? “Oh, there goes one of my pupils!”
Oh. I’ve done that. Many times.
I like to do the look on particular days when I feel like shocking young nurses.
I am/was pale blue eyed. My good eye has a permanent scar in the iris from the same accident. So it looks 1/4 dark.
I wear a colored contact on that eye. And then another color prosthetic. Scares the crap outta folks.
When you get to the place I am you have your fun where you can.
I’m thinking of more ways to use my stock of Googlie eyes at this very moment.
May I suggest public toilets?
Ewww. Nope nope nope
A moment of silence, please.
I’m having a very difficult time right now.
I just discovered my precious Bekkers isn’t [sob!] perfect.
~VOW
But she could be. If she just got that Magic 8-Ball eye.
I’m perfect in my own eye!
My Father gave a woman he saw walking a ride home, and she insisted on making coffee. She had her husband’s eye in a jar on the mantle. Dad said it’s gaze followed him around the room.
I kinda knew it was you.
Such an Arkansas type story.
We be weird
I’m new here. I’m really glad this post didn’t end up being “does this prosthetic eyeball make my butt look big?”
You’re going to do just fine here.
Welcome!
I used to work down the hall from what was left of the American Optical Monoplex Artificial Eye division. They made the BEST false eyes in the world. They had the smallest commercial plastic extruding machine I ever saw that they used to make Delrin eyeballs with realistic little red threads running through them and astonishingly real-looking irises. I know they made custom weird eyeballs, because someone I knew had a keychain fob that was a false eye with five irises set in it.
I don’t know what he charges, but the guy who ran the division bought it out and set up on his own making them:
You could always buy an old one off eBay. This one’s only $81. But it might not be in your size
