How do research and education benefit from donation?
Research on glaucoma, retinal diseases like macular degeneration, eye complications of diabetes, and other sight disorders helps to advance the discovery of the causes and effects of these conditions. This can then lead to new treatments and possibly cures. Additionally, the next generation of surgeons may learn surgical techniques on donated tissue. Regardless of whether tissue is used for research and education, there is no substitute for these invaluable gifts.
