Corona information:
Our institute remains open until further notice under certain conditions. However, we ask you to come to the institute in person only in urgent cases (e.g. after surgery or in case of acute pain).
Otherwise we ask you to shift your appointment to a later date. Alternatively, you are welcome to send us a sample eye via mail. Please contact us first.
Most of our consultation days will also not take place in the near future. If you have already made an appointment for this, we will contact you personally.
We thank you for your understanding and wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Kunstaugen-Institut Leipold

Ocular prostheses – a question of trust
We have been creating ocular prostheses made of glass (colloquially known as glass eyes) at the Kunstaugen-Institut Leipold since 1920. Now in our fourth generation, we are known as a competent and reliable contact partner in the Ruhr region, NRW and beyond.
We also have additional branches in North Rhine-Westphalia:
Arnsberg - Bielefeld - Dortmund - Paderborn - Soest - Wesel

Our trainee Darius Flöder has made it: Since Saturday, November 23, 2019 he can officially call himself DOG certified ocularist. Together with three other trainees, he has successfully passed the final exam of the German Ocularist Society at the Kunstaugen-Institut F. Ad. Müller Söhne in Wiesbaden.
On 15 June 2019, the RB Meeting, the annual meeting of the Children's Eye Cancer Foundation, took place again in Düsseldorf. Around 300 young and older children, parents, encouragers and other interested parties met for discussions, workshops and lectures on the subject of retinoblastoma.
