I was in a car crash. I had broken glass embedded in my left eye and couldn’t see anything. The first ophthalmologist that assessed my eye said that it was an Ocular Occlusion and that they should remove my eye. My sister in-law asked Dr Anibal Manzano to come to the clinic to see me and he said: -We have to put all our knowledge in play to rescue her eye. When they performed a second surgery on my eye, they found pieces of glass still embedded there. I lost the vitreous, the iris, almost the whole eye was lost, but Dr Manzano recommended a corneal transplant and I had it saved. I feel happy being able to keep my eye. I couldn’t bear the idea of having it removed knowing that science is so advanced now. Without Dr Manzano’s efforts, it would not have been possible.
