Eye donation

In India, we estimate that 6 million people suffer from corneal blindness. It can be cured by corneal transplantation provided by ophthalmology.

The cornea is the transparent surface in front of you, the main focusing element. If the cornea becomes turbid due to illness, injury, infection, etc., the eyesight will be greatly reduced. Corneal transplantation is a surgical procedure in which the corneal portion with damaged cornea is replaced by a similarly shaped healthy donor cornea. More than 90% of corneal transplants have been successful, which helps to restore vision in patients with cornea blindness. Corneal opacity of infant cornea has a big influence on their lives.

The eye donor may be of any age group or gender. You can donate your eyes using glasses, diabetic patients, hypertension patients, asthma patients and people without infection

People with AIDS, B and C hepatitis, rabies, sepsis, acute leukemia (blood cancer), tetanus, cholera, meningitis, and encephalitis can not donate their eyes.

Surgical resection of ocular tissue is performed immediately after death in order to ensure that the tissue is in the optimal graft condition. This also ensures that funeral arrangements will never be late. Since removal does not cause deformation, the open coffin is still a choice of the donor family.

Corneal transplantation is usually done within 4 days from donation, although it depends on corneal preservation method

No It is illegal for traders to see their eyes, organs and tissues. All costs related to eye purchase are borne by Eye Bank.

The most important action a person can take is to speak to his / her family and legal representative. In most states, I am requesting my family to donate when my family dies. Families can agree to the donation. If they knew in advance that they wanted to donate his / her eyes, that would be most useful. Donation cards can be used as an indication of family / legal representative and hospital to indicate that they are interested in becoming an idol.

Please enter a specific landmark and phone number to the correct address so that the eye library team can easily find the place

Corneal studies with eyes not suitable for transplantation, discovery of newer technologies, improvement of preservation methods and training of corneal surgeons

Eye Bank is a non-profit community organization operated by medical director, eye bank manager, eye bank technician. It collects, evaluates and distributes the eyes of loved ones.

Donate each pair of eyes and give a light gift to the two

A wide range of social recognition programs and activities began nationwide to promote the importance of donating eyes and its usefulness to the visually impaired. So far medical researchers and scientists are working on the development of artificial cornea, but until that time donating eyes was the best gift for blind people with corneal blindness.
