A National Eye Donation fortnight was celebrated by Govt. of India every year from 24th August to 8th September wherein health institutes and other stake holders are encouraged to campaign for mass public awareness for eye donation and to motivate citizens to pledge their eyes after death.  At present, around 1.2 million people are corneal blind in India and current annual transplant number in the country is 25000- 30000. In PGIMER, around 2200 patients are waiting for their corneal transplantation but the hospital gets only 400-500 corneas every year. The objective of this fortnight is to create mass public awareness and to bridge the gap between the demand and supply of cornea.
