Aaron James is a man that survived a high-voltage electrical accident. Aaron underwent a twenty-one hour surgery to replace not only their eye but half of their face. It’s known that surgeons have been able to successfully transplant coreanas for years. To transplant a full eye though, was yet to be done.
This year on May 27, Aaron underwent surgery that needed 140 healthcare workers. The doctors said after the long and complicated surgery, they were recovering well. It was said that the donated eye looked normal and Aaron still had eye sight. Although Aaron was the nineteenth person to undergo a face transplant, they were the first to have an eye transplant.
