Eye Bank Association of America

The Eye Bank Association of America (EBAA) is a professional organization that sets standards and supports eye banks across the United States, where donated corneas are recovered, evaluated, and prepared for transplantation. Their goal is to ensure safe and ethical donation processes, improve tissue preservation, and increase access to sight-restoring corneal transplants. They also provide certification, education, and advocacy to advance eye donation and improve patient outcomes. Essentially, the EBAA helps coordinate and maintain high-quality practices in eye banking to restore vision for those in need.
