How your $120 makes a blind person see

You’ll be giving sight to a person suffering from Cornea Disease. In layman’s terms, cornea disease clouds over the cornea, the lens of the eye. A person who has cornea disease is functionally blind because no light can get into their eye.

The Cure

But the great news is that cornea disease is curable! The cure is simple; a transplant surgery to implant a donated, healthy cornea to replace the diseased cornea (or corneas).
