Man whose left eye melted' in acid attack thanks placenta donor who helped him heal
Briefly

Following a brutal acid attack, Paul Laskey lost sight in his left eye but has shown immense gratitude to a mother who donated her placenta, which was used to create amniotic grafts for his recovery. Over eight months, he underwent multiple transplants that facilitated subsequent treatments aimed at restoring vision. The amnion grafts, taken from placenta, offer significant healing for ocular injuries and highlight the transformative impact of organ donation in providing solutions for those in dire need.
I'm so thankful to the mother who chose to donate her placenta to help people like me who are at risk of losing their sight completely.
Amnion is widely used for a variety of ocular surface problems, and it is incredible to think that this is possible due to the generosity of a mother.
