| Abstrakt: | Abstract: For-profit eye banks have been advocated because they stimulate innovation and improve the quantity and quality of corneal tissue. The claims of for-profit eye banks do not stand up to scrutiny and promote discord in the recovery and distribution field. Commercialization can adversely affect public perception of corneal donation. Competing Interests: The author has no financial conflicts of interest to disclose.
