摘要

The invention provides a coloured keratoprosthesis comprising a one-piece core and skirt device having a transparent lenticular core portion and a peripheral skirt portion that is coloured to match the apparent colour of an iris in a patient. Preferably, the keratoprosthesis is coloured in such a manner wherein there is little or no bleeding of colouring agent from the peripheral skirt into the transparent lenticular core.
