[Ektoprosthesis with a synchronically movable eyelid (author's transl)].
An ektoprosthesis with a synchronically movable, electronically controlled eyelid has been developed. A suitable trigger-signal is derived from the movement of the natural contralateral eyelid. The miniaturized electronic processing unit is intergrated into the spectracle frame. The artificial eyelid is moved by an electromagnet situated in the orbital cavity.
