Hello I am sorry but there is no eye transplantation.. Only cornea is transplanted and it helps a person with corneal problem In your case, I assume optic neuropathy is the cause for loss of vision and corneal transplantation will not help Having said that it is provisional diagnosis Kindly share your case file so that I may guide you better Regards
