An ocular prosthesis includes a posterior sclera portion partially nested with an anterior clear portion. An iris disk piece and/or a retinal chip may also be disposed between the posterior and anterior portions. A method for manufacturing the ocular prosthesis includes scanning an impression of an eye socket or an existing ocular prosthesis, fabricating posterior and anterior portions from geometrical models generated from the scans, and forming the ocular prosthesis by joining the two portions. In another embodiment of the method, a photograph of an iris is provided and manipulated to form a multi disk iris piece to be used in the ocular prosthesis.
