Cornea Donation and Transplantation: A National Consensus Forum for Improving Access in Canada<\/h4>\n

The report captures and summarizes the recommendations, ideas and enthusiasm from the February 9-10, 2020 event in Toronto hosted by Canadian Blood Services<\/a> (CBS). The report – Cornea Donation and Transplantation: A National Consensus Forum for Improving Access in Canada – is a roadmap and blueprint for how we can collectively improve cornea donation and transplantation and have a significant impact on Canadians who are waiting for the gift of sight. CBS incorporated the feedback we received on this report from the participants, and the planning committee.<\/p>\n

Eye and tissue bank representatives, health authority and hospital leadership, transplant ophthalmologists, organ donation organizations, transplant recipients, donor families and several national organizations \u2013 including the Canadian Ophthalmological Society<\/a>, the Canadian National Institute for the Blind<\/a>, the Canadian Donation and Transplantation Research Program<\/a>, the Canadian Standards Association<\/a> \u2013 Ocular Technical Committee, Canadian Blood Services<\/a>, and the Donation Physician Network<\/a>, came together to identify opportunities and solutions.<\/p>\n
