cornea

IIT-Delhi’s Prof Archana Chugh along with her PhD students have been working in collaboration with Dr Sushmita G Shah, Ophthalmologist and Cornea Specialist, to find a cure for fungal keratitis or infection of the cornea.

Ekta Pandey, a visually impaired girl from Lucknow, has pledged to donate her eyes. She lost her vision at the age of 12 after her fight with brain tumour, but her corneas are healthy, allowing her to fulfil her deep desire to make someone else see with her eyes.
