New That one is actually there.
But, this is timely. I'm getting an out-patient eye surgery Friday, so while I'm conscious I can be listening for acronyms! :) The operation is a combination of DSEK (Descemet's Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty) and cataract surgery on my left eye. In plain English, DSEK is a transplant of the inner layer of the cornea. I had the same done a couple of years ago on my right eye. Functionally I'll be a cyclops for a few days.

New Re: Domo arigato!!
And to use one of the words in the list, thanks also to those who ride Donorcycles. That's one source of corneas and parts thereof. The parts are kept in a deep freeze and thawed just before use.
