In December 2025, Eversight Vice President of Global Development Collin Ross and Eversight Medical Director Shahzad Mian, MD, began their visit in Lahore, where Eversight joined leaders at King Edward Medical University (KEMU) and Mayo Hospital to inaugurate a new eye bank facility—one that was designed with Eversight’s technical guidance and built in record time through strong institutional and government support. This eye bank is central to a broader effort to establish a comprehensive local cornea donation program at KEMU.

“It was heartwarming to see how much engagement there was; how excited people are to help support addressing corneal blindness by advancing corneal transplantation in Pakistan,” Dr. Mian said.

“Our daughter, Katherine, was our light and the eldest of our children. She died unexpectedly in September 2020 at the age of 22...Katherine died on a day our church celebrates nationwide called “God’s Work, Our Hands” Sunday. We honor the commitment we make to consistently do good work in our communities for others. We wear bright yellow shirts with “God’s Work, Our Hands” printed on them...She was wearing it when the medical examiner told us she had registered to be an eye, organ and tissue donor with Gift of Life Michigan. In that moment, I realized the fullness of what she was doing, the complete giving she was ready to do when the time came and that she would be able help people see, and many other things because of her selflessness and love for others. I remain in awe of my daughter and am so proud of her,” — A tribute from Lisa Mitchell Parker, Katherine’s mom

Ken and Irma Bates support Eversight for a simple reason: when their family needed sight-saving tissue, it was there—immediately. Behind that moment was a coordinated system of donation, recovery and surgical partnership that made emergency transplantation possible.

“We didn’t know about Eversight until it happened to us,” Irma said. “Thank God it was there. We want Eversight to continue, and we want people to know about it.”

For the Bates, giving back is a way to honor the doctors who guided them and to ensure other families never face the unknown alone. Learn about their story & more: https://eversight.ws/4cjxqWb.

“My husband Keith was the most selfless person I have ever met. He always put other people first before his own needs or wants. He loved fiercely. He was my rock and best friend. When I found out that Keith chose to be on the registry for eye donation, I was not surprised. It was just another example of his selflessness and willingness to help others. He would be so humbled and honored to know that his donation has given the gift of sight to not just one but two recipients. I could not be any prouder of him. His legacy lives on through them.” — A tribute from Maria Mergel, Keith’s spouse

Keith’s legacy lives on through the gift of sight. Discover more donor tributes and find ways to honor the gift of sight today: https://eversight.ws/4sWsc8P. 💙
