This November is Eye Donation Month!

Since it was proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1983, Eye Donation Month is the perfect opportunity to learn more about the importance of registering to be a donor, cornea donation and transplantation. This year’s Eye Donation Month campaign is centered around the theme The Power of You—which acknowledges the entire community of people who are involved in the journey of sight restoration. Register as a donor today!
