69 year-old retired paediatrician Dr Vladimir Promovich became blind last year. When doctors at Kaplan Medical Centre received a donated cornea, they used new technology to divide the cornea for transplantation into two recipients – one being Dr Promovich. After full recovery, Dr Promovich has promised to volunteer at Kaplan. “After all, I worked here, and now they have given me my sight back.”
