Cornea should be collected within 6 hours form the death time. This time factor has restricted us to collect cornea in the periphery of 30 kms from our Sangli based hospital. Requirement for collecting cornea is 1) Death Certificate from Doctor 2) Recent blood reports 3) Consent from first degree blood relative.

 

We have updated facility to preserve doner cornea up to 15 days. Also, quality of the cornea is checked on Specular Microscope. Netra Seva Foundation has put dedicated efforts to bring this advanced model microscope and is first of its kind in Western Maharashtra. Availability of this latest machine has not only helped to check quality of doner cornea but to select suitable patient to implant the cornea.
