I'm sorry---I am located in the United States. There is no fee for the actual eye donation--it is more the doctor and hospital bills that have to be paid.

Even if it meant that could go from not seeing your loved ones--to being able to see what they look like?

Interesting. I think I would get the transplant. I have a df who lost her sight gradually and I know if she had the money she would have the transplant in a heartbeat because she misses seeing her family--and all the grand kids that she has never seen.
