So I'm getting a new eye

[Bon_Clay]

Wow, never saw this thread coming.

Hmmm, I'd just go David Bowie and get one with a different eye color than your "good" eye.

Also, do you have a picture of your prosthetic eye, so we have a reference point?

Actually David Bowie's eyes are both the same colour, one of them is just constantly dilated. His friend punched him in the face while wearing a ring and almost blinded him in that eye.

OT I think that's an awesome idea OP, if I had a prosthetic eye I'd definitely get a cool one to wear sometimes. You could either just go for a realistic looking one of a different colour than brown for something more subtle or something crazy, both would be cool.

Here's a site with cool contact lenses you could get some ideas from: http://9mmsfx.com/lenses.html

Surprised nobody has suggested it yet.

If you want that they have it in contacts

How about this eye

 

[Anarchemitis]

Something not unnatural, just rare.

Or gold.

 

[Hallow'sEve]

Can you get glow-in-the-dark eyes? Because that'd be freaky as hell.

 

[Wharrgarble]

Hal 9000! It would cause a few double takes.

 

[Irridium]

You could just forget the eye, put on an eyepatch, and go full-on pirate.

Or, failing that, I'd go with this:

I think it'd look pretty sweet.

According to where I found it [http://www.picable.com/Art/Photography/AWESOME-Eye-of-God.594975], its called the "eye of God".

You can't get like, lights and shit in your prosthetic, can you?

If you can, defo get an Illusive Man. If not, the first one you posted looks pretty awesome.

EDIT: Wait a second...

In a couple weeks' time, I shall be getting a new eye in addition to my usual (normal) prosthetic eye.

Does this mean that both your eyes are prosthetic?

Can you see? I didn't think they could do that yet...

Get eyes like the illusive man...<.<
or JC Denton...

It is a popular misconception that JC Denton has eyes. Behind the sunglasses is simply another, smaller set of tinted lenses that cover the tiny nano-machine cameras that replaced his eyes.

In a couple weeks' time, I shall be getting a new eye in addition to my usual (normal) prosthetic eye. For this one I can have my own custom design. So basically, I was wondering if any of my fellow Escapists have any good ideas (or maybe even your own designs!) to suggest. As a general idea of what I'm thinking of currently, here are a few images I dug up that I like.

I think you get the point. I'd like to go for something that looks brightly surreal and distinguished, without seeming like an obvious novelty (well, so it looks remotely real). Something inspired by a big blue supernova. Yeah, supernovae are cool right? Not to say the more whacky ideas aren't welcome. Other ideas so far have been a yellow smiley face, an 8-ball, a reptilian eye and an eye in the style of that of the Illusive Man from Mass Effect 2. So c'mon everybody, lemme hear whatcha got.

EDIT: If it helps at all, I have dark brown eyes with dark rings around my irises. Thanks to 'PeePantz' for reminding me that this could be a useful piece of information.

Snake eye.

That might be a bit too freaky though, if so go with the first one you posted. And maybe chuck a camera in it.

He doesn't have sunglasses on in Invisible War...<.<

 

[Best of the 3]

I'm going to go with my avatar for this one.

 

[Yoshemo]

A point that might stand if I was willing to accept that Invisible War was a thing that exists. All the rage of all the fanboys lamenting at every perceived travesty pertaining to the thing that they love pales in comparison to my response to Invisible War. Invisible War was proof positive that there was a god and that god clearly hated me.

I like the second one, but I vote for Red.

I think you're overlooking a legitimate reason to wear an eye patch.

Seriously, go with the eye patch!

Who doesn't love dark red eyes. GET DARK RED EYES.
