Eye Donation Month 2024

Eye Donation Month is observed each November, and this year's theme is "We Can See Clearly Now."

The purpose of Eye Donation Month is to:

  • Raise Awareness about cornea donation and transplantation
  • Honor the gift of sight given by selfless donors and their families
  • Celebrate cornea transplant recipients living their fullest lives thanks to the generosity of donors
  • Educate about eye donation and encourage individuals to register as donors
