Here is your answer

Act of donating one’s eyes after his/her death is Eye do- nation. Merely corneal blinds can be helped through this procedure not other Blinds. It is an action of help, mainly for the assistance of the society and is totally charitable. It is done after death. So eye-donation should be exhilarated in a large scale, as one of the best means of communal ser- vice. To allow another person get vision is one of the best procedures of charity. Even after death the donor lives in the eyes of recipient. Eyes from a dead person can enable two blind people to acquire vision.
The eyes, which are received through such generous ges- tures, are of great advantage to the society. The tissue of the eye called as cornea can be used to return vision to corneal blind person. The other servings of the eye are also used for research and development of medical studies.
The Cornea is the clear tissue covering the front of the eye. It is a concentrating component of the eye. The Vision is decreased or vanished if the cornea becomes cloudy. This loss of the vision is stated as corneal blindness.
Corneal blindness can be treated by removing the dam- aged cornea and replacing it with a healthy cornea. Corne- al grafting is only the alternative for the corneal blindness. Synthetic corneas have not yet been developed and hence the only source for cornea is from our human beings. The first corneal transplant took place in 1905 [1].
There are a few more compelling reasons why you need to donate your eyes and these include:
1. 1.5% of the population are unnecessarily blind
2. 25% live below the poverty line
3. 2.5 million children are suffering, including those
who don’t have the correct spectacles
4. 32% are under 15
5. 60% of blind children will not make it to adult-
hood. A cumulative economic loss to India’s GNP
of US$11.1 billion
6. 75% live in rural areas
7. There are 12,000 ophthalmologists in the country
but the majorities of them live and work in the ur-
ban areas
8. 40% live in rural areas in central & northern In-
dia where there is little access to quality eye care
services
In India 15 million peoples are blind currently. Out of the 15 million blind peoples 6.8 million are suffer from corneal blindness with vision less than 6/60 in at least one eye. The major problem in India is that eye donation has not yet become popular. Though, the studies have shown that 50% of the general population were aware of “eye collection‟ in India, less than 5% knew that this should be done within the first 6 hrs of death and 20% had heard about corneal transplantation. [2] In India, thousands of people remain blind due to non-availability of donor. The annual require- ment of 75,000 to 1,00,000 corneas, only 22,000 corneas are donated in India at present. Cornea, the main focusing part of the eye, is the clear front surface of the eye. Like a “window”, it allows light to enter the eye. Vision could be markedly reduced or lost if the cornea becomes “cloudy” or scarred. It is unfortunate that over 1 million citizens of this country are suffering from corneal blindness.
There is further addition of 40,000 to 50,000 corneal blind persons every year.
