In India, more than 2 million people suffer from blindness – but they do not have to stay blind for the rest of their lives. With the help of eye banking services, eyes can be donated to help eliminate corneal blindness one pair at a time. There are many benefits to being an eye donor or getting eyes from an eye bank:

State of the Art Facilities

The Eye Foundation in Bangalore is equipped with an efficient surgical team and sophisticated instrumentation to handle the most complex corneal transplants restoring vision and hope in the lives of many.

Trained Surgeons

Not only do they have the tools—but they also have the skills. The best hospitals with large Eye banks have the best eye specialists and surgeons with many years of world-class training. The process of harvesting eyes in an eye bank is also an easy and bloodless procedure that can be done in less than 15 minutes. It will not disfigure the face of the donor in any way.

Helping the Blind

Passing on healthy organs to people who still need them is one of the best ways to leave a mark on this Earth. By donating or pledging eyes, givers help the blind regain their sight, the ability to manage their lives individually, and of course, seeing their loved ones and their surroundings.
