Americans are increasingly at risk
for conditions which eventually
lead to kidney failure:
• Type II Diabetes*• High Blood Pressure*
Hispanic, African and Native
Americans are 3x more likely than
Caucasians to suffer these
conditions.* Can be prevented or delayed by staying at a healthy weight, eating well and getting exercise.

≈ 32,000 Oregonians died in 2013
1,563 cornea donors = 1,663 cornea transplants
772 tissue donors = 56,704 tissue transplants

Organ donation is very rare.
True. Not everyone who dies can donate organs, because they must
pass away under very specific circumstances.
![Page 13: Go Recycle Yourself](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062722/568138fa550346895da0ae92/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3 Criteria for Organ Donors
• Donor passed away in a hospital.
• Donor was placed on mechanical ventilator prior to death. Blood and oxygen continue to flow through the vital organs.
• Severe trauma caused the brain to swell, resulting in brain death. Electricity, blood and oxygen irreversibly cease to flow.

chemical burn keratoconus
When the cornea is damaged due to injury, disease, infection or a hereditary condition, corneal transplant surgery may be an option.
Research on glaucoma, retinal disease and eye complications of diabetes relies on human cornea donations—leading to
advanced treatments and cures.
