Abstract
Through the dedicated efforts of the Eye Bank of Canada's original Administrative-Coordinator, and the persistent recruitment of donors and enucleating physicians, corneal transplantation has been made an elective procedure over 1300 times a year. The number of annual donations over the 39 years of the Eye Bank's existence has risen from 2 to 2 000. The donations not suitable for transplantation are used to support many research programmes, and an active resident teaching programme.
