Cornea transplants can be improved

orate.

Eye banks play a crucial role in cornea transplantation. According to the Eye Bank Association of America, eye banks supplied the corneal tissue for 32,144 transplants in 2003.

"Often, the eye bank cell counts were off by more than 10 percent," Dr. Lass says. "We believe these data will trigger the development of new methods, improved training and universal standards to ensure that healthier corneas are being transplanted."
