Feel like your world has been torn apart?
Have you been told you need a corneal transplant? Are you recovering from recent transplant surgery?
Who are we? We are the
Lions Eye Bank (Alberta) Society,
a non profit organization dedicated to providing quality eye tissue for surgery to those in need.
People of all ages are waiting for transplants. On the other side, donors of any age are accepted. One donor has the incredible opportunity to help eight recipients, while donating for research and teaching can help thousands!
_________________ Common Myths About Eye Donation
- Having eye problems like cataracts or glaucoma can't be considered
- Having cancer means the eyes cannot be donated
- Senior citizens can't donate
These statements are not necessarily true.
If ever in doubt, please contact the Lions Eye Bank at (403) 943-3406.
