23. THREE TIER ORGANIZATION
An integrated system
involving a three-tier
community eye banking
pyramid based on the
infrastructure and manpower
at all levels
.
• The three tiers proposed were
eye donation centres, eye bank
and eye bank training centres.
24. EBTC
• . The top tier comprises of 5 Eye banking
training centers (EBTC)
• responsible for
1. tissue harvesting, processing &
distribution
2. creating public awareness
3. training and skill up-gradation of eye
banking personnel.
25. Eye banks
• Middle tier would comprise of a strong
network of 45 Eye Banks(EB)
• These Eye Banks would be closely linked
with 2,000 Eye Donation Centers- EDC
(ratio of 1: 50 suggested), each of which
would cater to a population ranging from
50,000 to 100,000.
26. EYE BANK PERSONNEL
1) EYE BANK INCHARGE:
2) EYE BANK TECHNICIAN
3) CLERK – CUM– STOREKEEPER
4) MEDICAL SOCIAL WORKER /
PUBLIC RELATION OFFICER
5) DRIVER -CUM - PROJECTIONIST
27. • 1. General supplies
1. Donor information sheet, consent forms
2. Pen-light—for gross examination of eyes
3. container with water, ice and special foam to
transport the tissue
4. Supplies for blood collection
5. Non sterile gloves
6. Broad spectrum antibiotic solution
7. Eye protection (safety goggles), shoe covers
8. Disinfectant solution
9. Eye caps/prosthesis
10.Biohazard disposable bag
11.Gauze and cotton pads
Two small closed stainless containers for gauze pads
soaked in 70 percent alcohol in one and 5 percent
betadine in the other.
28. 2. Autoclaved and sterile materials:
a. A double holed drape
b. Protective biohazard apparel-surgical gown
(preferably moisture impermeable) cap, mask,
etc.
c. Cotton tipped applicators or hemostats to
open the eyes.
d. Sterile balanced salt solution or 0.9 percent
sterile saline to irrigate the eyes
e. Sterile gloves
f. 8–10 pieces of gauze.
29. • 3. All instruments of enucleation
procedure & For corneal excision
(autoclaved)
• Blood samples are taken from the donor
that is serologically tested for human
immunodeficiency virus, Hepatitis B and
Hepatitis C virus.
30. EYE DONATION CENTERS
• Publicity of the volantary donation
• Registration
• Arrangement for the collection of the
eye after death
• Processing , packing , & transportation of
collected eye to attached eye bank
31. Blind Population
World - About 40 millions
India - more than 15 millions
Corneally Blind - 4.6 millions
32. LEGAL ASPECTS IN INDIA
• Under the Transplantation of Human Organs Act,
1994 (THOA)
1. The qualification of doctors permitted to perform
enucleation (surgical eye removal) has been
reduced from MS (Ophth.) to MBBS.
2. Eye donation in India is always decided by the
donor’s surviving relatives and not by the actual
donor,
3. Enucleating doctors always have to legally obtain
a written consent from the relatives of the
deceased before they actually remove the eyes.
