Reimche 4 These two youngsters were the first I receive corneal transplants under the Lions Clun
project Both live in Oklahoma City The Lions Cl the of the State are asking for persons to will their
eyes so that upon death they may be used to aid the visually handicappped
I W C Gibson president of the
I Sulphur Lion's club announced
I this week that the local organiza-
1 Lion is receiving a good response
I from local residents in it's effort
to set up an "Eye Bank" in con-
nection with a state-wide pro-
gram being conducted by the
Lion's club of Oklahoma
The program was kicked off in
southeastern Oklahoma with a 30-
minute program over an Ada tele-
vision station Tuesday night of
last week and Gibson reports that
a number of persons have already
volunteered to cooperate in the
project ' -
Dr R W Lewis is chairman of
the Eye Bank program in Sul-
phur for the local club and per-
sons wishing to donate to the pro-
gram should call Doctor Lewis
Pledges of eyes to the bank or
funds to help carry out the pro-
gram are being accepted by the
local club
' Gibson went on to describe the
Oklahoma Eve Bank plan as a
"gift of light" The transplant of
a perfect cornea to a sightless per-
son must be completed within 24
hours after the death of the eye
donor hence there can be no sup-
ply storage as in the case of blood
or bone banks Before the state
Lion's clubs announced they were
gearing for the job of guarantee-
ing a supply of donors there was
no organization with the scope
and purpose of implementing the
humanitarian blue-print
In addition to Doctor Lewis as
chairman members of the Eye
Bank committee of the local club
are Burl Peveto Leon Frost and
Marshall Montgomery
Special forms for donating eyes
may be obtained from any Okla-
homa Lions club Donors are pro-
vided with special identification
cards to be carried with them
The actual transplant consists
of replacing a scarred or clouded
cornea with a clear transparent
one Any person with a clear
healthy cornea can donate eyes
Corneas of elderly people are as
good as those of young people it
was pointed out
Eyes willed to the Eve Bank
'mist be removed from the donor
within five hours after death The
eves can then be refrigerated for
an additional 48 hours
"The success of the Eye Bank
orogam depends on the generosity
of the public" Doctor Lewis
nointed out "Our eves are one of
the greatest treasures It is now
possible to arrange for the gift
of our eyes after our death as na-
turally as we now arrange for
property in our wills By doing so
we can be assured that those
whose vision is now in doubt and
who could be helped by our gift
may someday see"
Those who have willed their
eves to the Oklahoma Eye Bank
through the Sulnhur Lions Club to
date are Bob Lewis Mrs Eliza-)1th
Zellmann Mrs Pauline
Northcutt Mr and Mrs Bill Uti-
les Mrs Bernice Frazier Jimmy
