Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Physical facts like an enucleated eye, kind any issues can be confirmed by proper physical examination and lab tests like serum creatinine and urea and an USG abdomen.
Regarding the psychiatric issues, PTSD cannot be confirmed or refuted by any possible way or diagnostic tests. One possible way to confirm the history is by doing a truth serum tests (narcoanalysis). But still the results are not fool proof.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
