(...)This milestone ended more than a hundred years of unsuccessful
attempts by eye surgeons all around the world. The method developed
by Dr. Zirm is still the basis for the repair of corneal damage. Derived
from this historical method are the methods of transplants of hearts,
kidneys, and livers. |

But in 1905, Dr. Eduard Konrad Zirm, an ophthalmologist practicing
in Austria, was presented with a unique opportunity. One of his patients
was a young boy whose damaged eye, although it could not be saved,
had a perfectly intact cornea. Another of his patients was a workman
whose corneas were damaged in an accident.
Dr. Zirm removed the boy’s eye and carefully excised the
cornea, then implanted it in place of the workman’s
damaged cornea. The result was a groundbreaking achievement: Within
a few hours, the man’s vision returned,
and he retained his eyesight for the rest of his life. In 1925,
Helen Keller persuaded Lions Clubs around the
world to lead the fight against blindness- (…) One hundred
years after the first successful corneal transplant, the Illinois
Eye-Bank pays tribute to Dr. Zirm and those who have built upon
his achievement over the past century |

March is National Eye Donor Month. Throughout 2005, the Eye Bank
Association of America (EBAA) will be commemorating the centennial
of the first corneal transplant performed by Eduard Zirm, MD, in what
is now the Czech Republic. Eduard Zirm, born in 1863 in Vienna, Austria,
attended the University of Vienna where he studied medicine. Dr. Zirm
worked in ophthalmology at Vienna Univ-Augenklinik and was eventually
offered a position at a newly formed eye clinic in a rural area of
Austria (now the Czech Republic). While there, he founded what would
become the largest eye clinic in the area. During his years in practice,
Zirm conducted thousands of cataract surgeries along with a number
of cornea transplants. |

This momentous medical milestone was performed by Dr. Eduard Zirm
in 1905, in what is now known as the Czech Republic. The first cornea
transplant recipient, Alois Glogar, had experienced burns in both
of his eyes leaving him blind. Dr. Zirm used human corneal tissue
to provide Glogar with renewed vision. Complications resulted in one
of Glogar's eyes, but the other resulted in the first cornea transplant. |
