EBAA Materials and Publications

The EBAA offers the following materials and publications for order:

  • Corneal Blindness Glasses- These glasses are a teaching tool that simulates corneal blindness. They are made of cardboard and have darkened, clouded plastic lenses. Looking through these glasses will enable the general public to empathize with those who suffer from corneal blindness.

  • Packing Tape- Packing tape keeps Styrofoam eye shipping containers shut without damaging the Styrofoam when removed. There are 55 yards of tape per roll. The tape reads "Human Eye Tissue Provided by Member" and carries the EBAA logo.

  • Medical Standards- Approved by the EBAA Medical Advisory Board and the American Academy of Ophthalmology, this document is a guide for eye banks to ensure strict adherence to approved medical procedures.

  • Procedures Manual- This manual is an operational guide to the Medical Standards, and establishes clinically-accepted, baseline practices for each eye banking procedure.

  • 2010 Statistical Report- The EBAA statistical report is a compilation of information provided to the EBAA by 79 U.S. and nine international eye banks and reflects an essentially complete picture of eye banking activity in the United States.

If you have any inquiries concerning the above materials and publications, please contact Membership Programs Coordinator Christa Aiken.
