Just a quick question, I have heard rumours that you can't give blood after receiving a cornea transplant. Does anyone know if this is true, I've researched on the internet and there isn't much information. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thank you

They won't accept blood from anyone who has had transplant surgery; that includes us, I am afraid.
