Start the first full weekend of Eye Donation Month with this lovely story from Southern Eye Bank, part of Advancing Sight Network.

An emotional donor father recalls taking his 16-year-old daughter, Ramsey, to the DMV for her first driver's license, when she told him her decision to be an eye, organ, and tissue donor. Sadly, two years later, after a tragic car accident, that same father made Ramsey's decision was followed, and she became a cornea donor hero.

This generous donation gave the gift of sight to a man suffering from keratoconus. Recently, the donor family and recipient met in person and formed a deep bond. Now, they are all committed to preserving Ramsey's legacy as an "Everyday Hero", spreading awareness about eye donation, cornea, transplantation, and donor registration.

Two global leaders in eyesight restoration are uniting.
Today, we’re proud to announce that Miracles In Sight and Advancing Sight Network will merge and begin operating as one organization on January 1, 2026. Together, we’ll build on more than 125 years of collective service to advance a shared mission: restoring sight and transforming lives.
Worldwide, more than 253 million people live with blindness or moderate to severe visual impairment – and about 90% of vision loss is preventable or treatable. By joining forces, we’ll expand capabilities across research, clinical trials, cellular therapeutics, international programs, and corneal transplantation. This will increase impact for donors, donor families, clinicians, and recipients.
As one organization, we’ll propel innovation, strengthen sustainability, and lean into collaboration. Because we know eye banks, clinicians, and research institutions can achieve more together.
