Given below are some of the most prevalent myths about eye donation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth1 : If I donate eyes, it will leave holes in the place where eyes existed and will cause face disfigurement.<\/strong><br>Fact: In reality, only the cornea of the eye is removed and thus there is no disfigurement of the face or hole is left&nbsp;behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth2 : If I donate my eyes, I will be born blind in the next life.<\/strong><br>Fact: This is a total misconception, no religious book ever supported that and there is no written evidence about this.&nbsp;Eye donation is a very noble cause and as they say good always begets good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth3 : My religion does not support eye donation .<\/strong><br>Fact: All religions endorse eye donation as noble deed and one of the best donation one can ever make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth4 : How my relatives and parents would react if I pledge my eyes for donation?<\/strong><br>Fact: You must realize that a little hindrance should not refrain you from doing this good deed. In fact, instead of giving&nbsp;up you should try to convince and rather motivate your family for pledging their eyes as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth5 : A person with a previous history of cataract or glaucoma cannot pledge his or her eyes for donation.&nbsp;Or a person is very old and thus not a suitable candidate for eye donation.<\/strong><br>Fact: If a person has been operated and treated for cataract or glaucoma, he or she can be considered for eye&nbsp;donation. Furthermore, there is no age limit for eye donation. Practically, anyone above one year of age can&nbsp;donate their eyes without any upper age limit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Myths \u2013 Superstitions related with Eye
