Ever wondered how a sightless person would react to this song? How would he visualize the host of golden Daffodils, fluttering and dancing in the breeze, flash upon that inward eye, which was the  bliss of solitude for Wordsworth?! What a dark, dreary world with everything dyed in monochrome- BLACK !! And yet, those of us who are fortunate enough to be blessed with the miracle of sight, do precious little to restore this gift to our less fortunate brethren, snug in the comfort of our cocooned lives! Here are a few facts about corneal blindness.<BR><BR style="COLOR: rgb(51,102,255)"><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold; COLOR: rgb(51,102,255)">FACTSHEET</SPAN><BR><BR>Ø      Corneal blindness mostly affects children<BR><BR>Ø      Corneal blindness can be cured only by corneal grafting from a donated eye<BR><BR>Ø      One can pledge to donate eyes during one's lifetime<BR><BR>Ø      Eyes can be donated only after death<BR><BR>Ø      If not pledged, eye donation can be done with the consent of relatives<BR><BR>Ø      People of all age groups can donate eyes<BR><BR>Ø      In India, there is a requirement of about 1 lakh corneas per year, whereas only 30,000 are donated<BR><BR>Ø      This shortfall can easily be bridged by spreading awareness about eye donation<BR><BR> HOW WE CAN HELP<BR><BR>Spread the good word around- most of us are not aware how a little effort on our part can light up someone's life!<BR><BR><BR>In the unfortunate event of death of an acquaintance, try to persuade the family to donate the eyes. This is the toughest part, considering the sensitivity of the situation, but if the family can be convinced that<BR><BR><BR>    * the eyes of the donor will live on after him,<BR>    * giving sight to two persons for a lifetime, and<BR>    * that the procedure of removal is free of cost, simple, hassle-free, &amp; does not cause any disfigurement to the body, <BR><BR>it is quite likely they would agree. So here's the real test of your persuasive skills! Once you have their consent, here's what you need to do next.<BR><BR>      Call the nearest eye bank immediately. For Delhi, dial 1919 ( 24 hr-MTNL Toll-free service).Telephone  numbers of eye banks in other cities are available on the website www.lightaneye.org.<BR><BR>      Switch off all fans in the room- cooler or AC, if available, can run.<BR><BR>      Wrap some ice cubes in damp cotton, &amp; keep them on the eyes. This  prevents the tissue from drying up, &amp; helps keep it fesh.<BR><BR>      Keep the head slightly raised with a pillow.<BR><BR>      Doctor/technician<BR>from the eye bank will reach the venue within the shortest possible<BR>time, collect about 10 ml blood, and remove the corneas, all in 15<BR>minutes.<BR><BR>      Eyes are fit for retrieval upto 6 hours after death.<BR><BR>      Remember, donated corneas are never sold/traded.<BR><BR> <BR>The Govt of India is also organizing National Eye Donation Fortnight from August 25 to Sept 8, 2007 to highlight the cause. Friends, where there's a will, there's definitely a way....come, let us all join hands to eliminate the scourge of corneal blindness from the face of our country, and help everyone relish the rainbow hues that you and I take for granted!<BR><BR></P><P></P></FONT><P></P></FONT></TD><TD width=10 height=10><TABLE height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR><TR><TD width=10 height=10><TABLE height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD><TD height=14><TABLE height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD><A href="http://pearll.rediffiland.com/scripts/xanadu_diary_view.php?postId=1191164892"><FONT class=f11v face=Verdana size=2>Permalink</FONT></A> <A href="http://pearll.rediffiland.com/scripts/help.php#What's a Permalink?" target=_blank><IMG height=14 hspace=0 src="http://im.rediff.com/rediffiland/pix/question.gif" width=14 align=bottom border=0></A></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD><TD width=10 height=10><TABLE height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=3 height=14><TABLE height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=2 height=150></TD></TR><TR><TD width=12></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><!--Right hand side table Ends //--></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><!-- Main Content End //--></TD><TD class=middletd2 noWrap width=10 bgColor=#e7e7e7><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10 height=1></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TABLE style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(http://im.rediff.com/rediffiland/pix/skins/bg-Xanadu-SKIN18.gif)" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD><TABLE style="BORDER-RIGHT: #bcbec0 1px solid; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: #bcbec0 1px solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: #bcbec0 1px solid" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="90%" align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD class=middletd1 noWrap width=10 bgColor=#e7e7e7><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD><TD class=botleft1 align=middle width=136 bgColor=#ffffff><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=136 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=133 height=1></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TD width=4 bgColor=#e7e7e7><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=4 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD height=1></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD><TD class=botleft2 align=middle width="100%" bgColor=#ffffff height=15> </TD><TD class=middletd2 noWrap width=10 bgColor=#e7e7e7><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=10 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR><TR><TD bgColor=#e7e7e7 colSpan=5 height=10></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TABLE style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(http://im.rediff.com/rediffiland/pix/skins/bg-Xanadu-SKIN18.gif)" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" align=center><TBODY><TR><TD height=25></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width=5 height=25></TD><TD align=middle width=740><FONT class=f13 color=#808285><SCRIPT language=JavaScript src="http://im.rediff.com/uim/footer/iLand_footer.htm"></SCRIPT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Copyright © 2007 Rediff.com India Limited.
