A Tooth Helped Her See Again
After more than 10 years of blindness, 75-year-old Gail Lane from Canada regained vision through a rare procedure known as “tooth-in-eye surgery.”
Gail lost her sight due to severe corneal damage caused by an autoimmune condition. Because a traditional corneal transplant was not possible, surgeons performed Osteo-Odonto-Keratoprosthesis (OOKP), one of the world's most unusual eye surgeries.
The procedure uses one of the patient's own teeth and a small piece of jawbone to hold a tiny optical lens. The tooth-lens implant is first placed inside the patient's cheek for several months, where it becomes covered with living tissue and develops a blood supply. It is then surgically implanted into the eye.
Just weeks after surgery, Gail could see light, colors, trees, flowers, and even the wagging tail of her service dog. She also saw her partner's face for the first time, having met him after she became blind.
Although rarely performed, OOKP can restore vision in selected patients with severe corneal blindness when other treatments have failed.
