Sri Lanka Donates Corneas to South Africa
Written by CNS   

 

The Sri Lankan Eye Donation Society has regularly donated corneas to the Pretoria Eye Bank and this donation is considered a milestone in the growing relationship between the two institutions and the peoples of South Africa and Sri Lanka, as this particular donation will bring the figure to over 100 corneas donated from Sri Lanka to South Africa. It is estimated that there are more than three thousand South Africans who cannot complete their schooling or lose jobs while suffering from treatable corneal blindness. This donation is expected to make a significant difference in the lives of South African patients and would definitely enhance the existing good relations between the two countries and its people.
