source for glass eyeballs?

[steponmebbbboom]

Hi all, I got this idea for incorporating glass eyes into this ongoing series Ive been doing. I called some ocularists, apparently theyre made of plastic now, but pretty expensive. Around $175 or so a pair? Crazy...

Anyway, I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions on where I could find large quantities cheap/wholesale....

Hey try AFX Studio's In Marietta,GA.He does sculpture and special effects ,and at one time he had some gig selling glass eyes.His name is Andre.good luck

There are usually several antique glass eye/prosthetic eye auctions on eBay at any given time. Buying a used/antique glass eye from someone is kind of creepy.

A cost effective alternative would be to Google search "Taxidermy Supplies" . There are several online taxidermy suppliers that carry Human Eyes....kind of creepy as well.

I bought some here a while back.

About $10 per pair for 26mm (largest offered). They look nice for inexpensive eyes and have the corneal bulge.

Try www.lifecasting.com. I think I paid $15 for a cheapie pair a month ago and was quoted about $60 for a better pair.

Heres a little critter I made mainly for my own amusement. I was hoping for a larger eye, but had to use what was available.

These guys make amazingly realistic eyes. I don't think they have a website but give them a call.
