Welcome to the web site for

The North Carolina Eye Bank

We are dedicated to helping people see clearly by providing eye tissue for transplantation and research efforts across the United States and around the world.

At this site, you can find our mission and capabilities, where we began, and a bit about our history. You can learn about the importance of being an eye donor, what happens to the eye tissue, and how it can mean the difference between sight and blindness for someone in need. You can also see the role of eye donation in helping researchers come closer to finding cures for devastating eye diseases.

We invite you to look around this site. If you have any questions, please contact us. We'll be happy to talk with you.  

The North Carolina Eye Bank is accredited by the Eye Bank Association of America (EBAA) and registered with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
