I was blind in my right eye in 2023. I went to an eye Dr who arranged a cornea transplant from a surgeon. The surgeon fixed my eye. I can see in it now.
He asked me if I'd heard of the York Rite Lodge? He explained it raised over 90k for eye research in our state.
I explained to him I volunteered at hot dog sale fundraisers to help them raise the money that went to the University where he was trained to do cornea transplants.
