The document discusses guidelines for eye banks in India's National Programme for Control of Blindness. The objective is to promote eye banking through government and non-government organizations to obtain adequate corneal tissue for transplants. Eligibility criteria for eye banks include experience providing eye care or collecting a minimum number of eyeballs. Infrastructure requirements and assistance provided include funds for equipment, staffing, and a certain amount per collected eyeball pair. Data shows increasing eyeball collection from 2008-2015 but utilization rates vary from 30-70% with over 50% of collected eyeballs in one state not used for transplants. Suggestions to increase collection and utilization include expanded awareness campaigns and improved coordination between donation centers and eye banks.
