Anyone have problems with Saskia eye sockets?
I have a Saskia and I have tried several different 20 mm eyes but the all leave a gap at the bottom and side of the left eye
I bought her at MacPhearsons...Anyone else?

Yes, I have seen several people say they had the same issues. Try cutting a felt circle or two and putting it in the socket then putting the eye in. Should take up the extra gap.

I cut the back of the socket out thinking I could get it to fit better so this isn't an option for me I'm afraidGinny W wrote:Yes, I have seen several people say they had the same issues.

Worse thing is I paid $200 to have her rooted!

Are they Flat Back Glass Eyes?..
If so, you can always try Full, Mouth Blown type and a bit of glue. ..

Re: Anyone have problems with Saskia eye sockets?
I cut the back of the sockets inside the head of my Saskia thinking that was how I was supposed to insert them (I took an exacto knife and cut the bottom of the socket so I could slip the eyes through) and have been able to fit 22mm flat in just fine, now I'm waiting on 20mm to arrive to see how they fit. I hope you are able to sort your problem out. I can imagine how frustrating it must be!
