Research Notes on Corneal Transplantation
The cornea is the clear part of eye in front of the iris and pupil. A cornea transplant, also known as corneal grafting or penetrating keratoplasty, is a surgical procedure where a damaged or diseased cornea is replaced by donated corneal tissue which has been removed from a recently deceased individual having no known diseases which might affect the viability of the donated tissue. Cornea transplants are one of the most common organ and tissue transplants performed in the United States.
