Hospital quality
We are an independent, non-profit, charitable organization, filled with a group of compassionate medical professionals. We recover, evaluate, and distribute donated corneas, making sure to honor the individuals who so selflessly give the gift of sight. Our mission is to restore sight through corneal transplant, ocular research, and medical education. We promote eye donation, partnering with our community to bring the world into focus one person at a time. Committed to tissue Quality, tissue Safety, and positive patient Outcomes (QSO), the ocular tissue we receive is a gift anchored in trust, starting with an individual's decision to be a donor, or a family's consent to donation. We are proud to be the honored stewards of these gifts.
