Science has as yet not discov-
cred the means of transplanting
human eyes" they said, and went
on to explain:
What can be done and has been
done is TO transplant a small piece
of clear cornea (the transplant
front layer of the eye) from a
human donor eye to the eye of a
person blinded through clouding of
this front layer by severe disease
or injury The donor eye, "
they continued, is never obtained
by removal of a sound eye.

lished in Vatican City, which is
entirely unofficial. Many secular
papers headed their stories: "Vati-
can bans eye gifts" and Vatican
against eye donors" and so on.
In a letter TO the Catholic Mes
senger of Davenport, Iowa, two eye
specialists from the Department Of
Ophthalmology, University Hos
pitals, the State University of Iowa,
explained that donor eyes are
never obtained by removal of
sound eyes.
One way IL is obtained, wrote
Doctors Hermann M. BuriAn and
p. J. LeinfeIder, "is HE excisicn

ophthalmologists, rs to remove a

willed or permitted this use of his

possibly arise. We would not pre-
sumo to decide whether or not
such a procedure is morally wrong,
but we strongly feel that it is not. ]"
The doctors went on TO explain
that in many parts of the country
"eye banks" are now being devel-
oped in which excised corneas are
being stored in order to create a
backlog for transplants, "since the
number of patients in need of such
an operation far exceeds the num-
ber of available corneas. There is
everywhere a long waiting list"
said the doctors, and added: 1T
would, therefore, be desirable for
experts in moral theology and the
ecclesiastic authorities to consider
this problem.
Doctors Burian and Leinfelder
said that when one speaks Of the
