My good friend was recently in an accident where he was hit in the eye with a cellphone. The doctor told him that his eye basically exploded, and after examination in the emergency room that their was nothing that could be done due to serious damage. Was wondering if anyone on the forum, or a doctor, has any experience with this kind of injury. My friend has to go in tomorrow to remove the eye completely. I know nothing about this, and he is quite freaked about it also.
Has anyone here ever lost an eye, and what are the implications thereafter? What about and when can he get a prosthetic eye? Unfortunately, I cannot go with him to the hospital tomorrow, so I cannot be there to ask question, and have instructed him to get as much information as possible. Just wondering if anyone here has any insight at all?

Thanks, LEO
