Cornea Transplant

The first ever cornea transplant was performed in 1905, by Eduard Zirm, making it one of the first types of transplant surgery successfully performed.

True. But that patient looks like they haven't slept since 1905.

Re: Cornea Transplant

The last of my brothers to die was an organ donor. They took his corneas and skin.

It looks cool, (for an eye)! They still creep me out!

I never knew they could stitch an eyeball. Hopefully, they dissolve.

Re: Cornea Transplant

My uncle had this op done last month. When light catches his eye now it glows green like a Dog or Cats. Freaky.
