University Hospitals Case Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine announced the results of a first-ever study that bolsters findings of a national study confirming the viability of older corneas for transplant. The national study, called the Cornea Donor Study (CDS), had its results released this morning by the National Eye Institute. Cleveland’s unique contribution to it was the five-year Specular Microscopy Ancillary Study (SMAS) which analyzed 347 patient images from 80 sites across the United States of those patients who had not experienced graft failure after corneal transplantation. As a result of the study, age pool for cornea donors—currently limited to donors 65 and younger—may be expanded by as much as 20 to 35 percent to include donors up to 75 years of age. This will help increase the number of corneas available for transplant around the world.
