Katie was left with devastating facial injuries in 2008 following a sulphuric acid attack orchestrated by former boyfriend Daniel Lynch and carried out by his accomplice Stefan Sylvestre.
She has since undergone numerous painstaking surgical procedures, including treatment to break down her extensive scar tissue and reduce skin contraction.
Travelling to Hamburg for her latest, Piper, visited the Institute for Artificial Eyes – a new, family owned business devoted to the provision of glass and plastic eye prostheses.
Taking to Instagram, the presenter – who was accompanied by husband Richard Sutton – shared a highlights reels of her trip, including before and after shots of her eye, both with and without its glass prosthesis.
Evidently delighted with the results, Piper praised the clinic and its pioneering work in an Instagram post, with the accompanying caption: ‘Entering a new era. Feeling empowered by the delicate and meticulous work by The Weinder Brothers on my new glass prosthetic eye shell.’
According to its website, the Weinder owned clinic endeavours to ‘restore facial harmony’ and aid the patient’s patient’s ‘physical and psychological rehabilitation’ by crafting and fitting each prosthesis based on the individual’s wants and needs.
Piper’s recent trip to Hamburg comes after she admitted to giving up her dream of having a third child because of an emergency operation.
The presenter claimed said spending time jailed mums in New Orleans Parish Prison while filming TV show Locked Up made her want to try for a third baby, after hearing heartbreaking stories from lags who were missing their children.

She told The Mirror: ‘It started to make me think, ‘This is my last chance to have another baby, I’m going to be 40. And if I don’t do it now, I never will.’
Piper had to go under general anaesthetic for the operation on her left eye – which was damaged in a horrific acid attack in 2008, orchestrated by a man she briefly dated.
‘I had to have a general anaesthetic and you can’t be trying for a baby and also be having unexpected surgeries,’ she explained.
‘So that scuppered that and we had a break. We tried again, but it just didn’t happen.’
Piper considered IVF, but after enduring over 250 operations since the 2008 acid attack, she couldn’t face more hospital appointments or the emotional toll if it didn’t work, so reluctantly gave up the dream of having a third child.
However, she still felt something was missing, so, started volunteering at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, where she adopted a puppy.
She began volunteering and dog walking while still trying for a baby, and the decision to get a dog came naturally.

She added that her friend Alison helped her to pick the right dog for her family – a female half cockapoo puppy called Sugar with a calm temperament.
Piper’s life was changed forever when she was attacked with acid aged just 24 back in 2008 her ex-boyfriend Daniel Lynch and accomplice Stefan Sylvestre in 2008.
The presenter, who had been dating Daniel for just two weeks, was brutally raped by the steroid-fuelled martial arts expert in a hotel room when she tried to leave their relationship in March that year.
She is a mother to two daughters – Belle, 11, and Penelope, seven – with husband Richard, who she married in 2015.
