Very sorry about your accident. I am not aware of any such program because I’ve never looked into it. I wish I had more information but I do not. Best luck to you.

Yrs later my left eye is very poor that value vision doc say that can’t correct my lens so I can see clear not blurry .. I heard there’s a program out there that will pay for my eye corneal transplant .<– is this true?

I have had an appointment or two with Dr. Wortz as well at Koffler vision… I really liked him also.

I will make an appointment with Dr. Koffler. I have no pain and have had no vision change in many years. Vision is quite good. I can live with what I have and hope it never changes. Good luck to you and I hope you find that you did make the right decision. Tina

Sorry to have just now seen your comment. I’m fine with sharing my opinions of eye doctors in the area publicly. First, I am regularly impressed with the staff at Dr. Koffler’s office on Eagle Creek, but I just chose Dr. Holland because of the number of DALK surgeries he had done. I got the impression from my visits with Dr. Koffler that he would have preferred a full depth transplant, meaning I’d likely have to have a re-graft in 20-25 years. So right now, Dr. Holland is my primary surgeon and I’ve been to all of my follow ups with him. When I have an immediate issue, Dr. Koffler’s been great. And I have Dr. Koffler’s office make all of my special contacts. It may turn out that Dr. Koffler was correct and the DALK was the wrong decision…. but so far, so good. He’s recently helped me with a broken stitch and inspecting an abrasion where I didn’t feel the need to run to Cincy. Plus, Dr. Koffler’s office has always been easy to get an appointment at.

I would encourage you to consider a graft, especially if you have KC pain. Good luck!

It has not significantly changed since discovered about 14 years ago at the age of 48. I’m unusual that I do best in glasses rather than contacts. I need an exam and not expecting anything other than a prescription change. Any suggestions on who I might go see…..or not see? A private email response might be best if talking specific Drs in the area. Tina Nauman

Awesome!!!! I would welcome some guest posts from others if you’d like to add your own thoughts. Feel free to wait until a year’s passed if you’d like.

You’re very welcome. I wish you the best of luck in your decision, and if you elect, your procedure.
