• Eye donors can give sight to two people through the miracle of eye
transplantation.
• The cornea is the clear front window in front of the eye. It is about the
size of dime and it looks like a contact lens.
• Patients who suffer from a damaged eye and can no longer see may regain
the cherished gift of sight because of you.
• Even donors with complex medical histories are rarely excluded from giving
their eyes.
• Those who have poor eyesight or have had previous eye surgery also can
become donors.
• Thousands of people in Texas are waiting for a cornea transplant.
• 40,000 cornea transplants were made possible in the United States last
year by the selfless, compassionate generosity of eye donors and their
families.
