Our History

Founded by Charles E. Erickson on May 1, 1944, chartering a unique process still used today by many in the field. Charles was compassionate, innovative, and looked up to by many of his colleagues. He and his brother Jack Erickson were both pioneers in their field. The business was passed from its founder to his son Gerald R. Erickson to Gerald’s daughter, Rebecca S. Erickson, the third generation Ocularist in the Erickson family. Located in the Seattle Medical Dental Building since 1953, Erickson Laboratories continues to provide masterfully created, restorative ocular prosthetics that are custom fabricated for each individual.
