1. An ocular prosthetic system comprising:
an implant marker configured to move with an orbital implant disposed in an eye socket of a subject; and
an ocular prosthesis separate from the orbital implant, the ocular prosthesis comprising:
a housing having a form factor shaped to fit in a stationary position under an eyelid of the subject and in front of the orbital implant, wherein an anterior portion of the form factor is curved similar to an anterior portion of a normal eyeball for the subject;
a display device disposed within the housing and visible at an anterior portion of the housing;
an implant detector disposed within the housing and configured to detect a position of the implant marker moving with the ocular implant, relative to the housing, when the housing is inserted under the eyelid of the subject and anterior to the orbital implant; and
a processor disposed within the housing and configured to
determine, at least in part, a human appearance for a visible portion of the eyeball of the subject based, at least in part, on the position of the implant marker, and
render, at least in part, an image for presentation on the display device based on the human appearance for the visible portion of the eyeball of the subject including position and translation of an image of an iris in a display area on the display device.
