Hello! One of my relative is going through very bad situations for 11 days as he has lost his right eye(popped out and broken) in an accident. He went to Nepal hoping to get real eyes but they said that he'll not able to see world again with his right eye. Is it possible to get/replace real eye in India? It's urgent....Please suggest!!!!!

There is nothing like Eye replacement, only corneal transplant is done for corneal opacity.

Eye transplant is commonly corneal transplant. If the vision loss is due to corneal disease or damage, replacing it with donor cornea will give back vision provided everything else is ok. Whole eye replacement is not possible anywhere.
