if you mean can be transplanted, it is the cornea. Impossible to be the iris.

I believe LASIK is the safest and most popular procedure.\n\nFor LASIK, the skin covering the eye is cut and lifted, the top layer of the cornea is cut and lifted, and the underlying layer of the cornea is reshaped with a laser. The new shape allows the eye to focus images on the back of the retina more clearly. The pain is minimal, and the process takes 15 minutes. This is the most popular laser eye surgery, with over 800,000 procedures being performed in 1999.

I just had Lasik vision correction two weeks ago. It is a very amazing thing. You can go to the website to find out more info but basically they cut your cornea and reshape it to improve your vision. It is very safe and afforable. I would highly recommend it.

The treatment approach to keratoconus follows an orderly progression from glasses to contact lenses to corneal transplantation.   Glasses are an effective means of correction mild keratoconus.  As the cornea steepens and becomes more irregular, glasses are no longer capable of providing adequate visual improvement.  Corneal transplant surgery is indicated when a person cannot wear contact lenses for an acceptable period of time or when the vision, even with contacts, is unsatisfactory.  Over 90% of corneal transplants are successful with the majority of people obtaining vision of 20/40 or better afterwards with either glasses or contact lenses. A gas permeable contact lens is the most highly effective way to manage keratoconus and 90% of all cases can be managed this way indefinitely. If the cornea becomes too scarred or painful, a corneal transplant may be necessary.

Transplant Surgeon.  Traditionally, an M.D. (or D.O.) who has completed general surgical training (5 to 7 years of residency after med school) and then completed a transplant surgery fellowship (at least 3 more years in most cases).  \n\nTransplant Surgeons do both the organ harvesting from donors and the implantation of the donated organs in the recipients.

I had a tear in the retina of my left eye 20 years ago.  I had laser surgery to "spot weld" the area around the tear to keep it from spreading.  I have had no further retinal problems.

umm...for blindness and safety and age...let me think...\na ha! you must be at least eighteen years old to have an operation. (cornea transplant to correct blindness) but if you want to have it more on the safe side, then just wait till you are a middle aged person 25 yrs to 35

my grandad just had his eyes done and he has eighty per cent vision back which is better than he had before.  He is so happy that he doesn't need his glasses any more and really appreciates how it has turned his life around.\nThey perform it like this\n1) they give you an anesthetic that numbs the eye and the eye is held open by a special instrument as not to blink.\n2)they cut on the cornea to create a flap to access the middle layers\n3)the surgeon sculpts the middle layers before replacing the flap, this does not hurt and when the flap is replaced it starts to heal immediately\n4)your eyes will be gritty light and watery after but they give you transparent eye shields that you need to wear at bed time for five nights.  They also advise you bring sunglasses for when you leave\nhope this helps\nwww.opticalexpress.com

I don't have a specific answer for you, but have you tried asking your local eye doctor or optician?  They have access to just about everything available and may be able to point you in the right direction.

It involves removing the very surface layer of the cornea, known as epithelium (usually about 50 microns thick), then lasering the exposed corneal bed.  This way, the laser is not vaporizing tissue as deep in the cornea as with LASIK, and the risk of ectasia (a de-stabilization of the cornea caused by lasering too deeply into the cornea) is lowered. the surface epithelial cells are removed with a soft brush. After the laser treatment, as with LASEK, a disposable contact lens is placed on the eye, without replacing the damaged epithelial cells. New epithelium regenerates naturally, over two to three days.

Unfortunately, right now the type of transplant he would need (retinal transplant) isn't an approved process.  There are some trials being done in Kentucky, but to be a part of it you must be almost totally blind.  \n\nYou don't mention how old your husband is, so it's tough to say where he will be at age 73.  I would strongly suggest you join the e mail based support group sponsored by MDSupport.org.  They have a list where you can post questions and get answers from other folks in similar situations.  You can join the list by going to http://www.mdsupport.org/manage.html  \n\nMacular degeneration is difficult and frustrating to deal with, but it's becoming more and more common as people live longer.  Dry MD will not leave you totally blind, although it will impair vision to the point where driving is unsafe, etc.  There is also an increased risk of developing the wet form which is particularly nasty.  There are some really good resources out there.  I hope you take advantage of them.
