CORE’s Eye Bank plays a vital role in the restoration of sight through cornea and eye tissue donation, working closely with healthcare professionals to provide life-changing transplants to patients in need. CORE is 1 of only 5 organ procurement organizations (OPOs) nationwide that also operates an eye bank. This unique distinction makes us a complete OPO, enabling us to coordinate organ, tissue, and cornea donations seamlessly.

As an accredited member of the Eye Bank Association of America (EBAA), our skilled Eye Bank team partners with surgeons and hospitals across our region, ensuring that donated tissue is carefully matched and prepared for each transplant. Through continuous education and collaboration, CORE’s Eye Bank supports healthcare providers in advancing eye health and making a lasting impact in the lives of patients and their families.
