New York – Surgeons in New York created history when they performed the world’s first complete eye transplant on a man. Aaron James, a high-voltage utility line worker from Arkansas, underwent a groundbreaking surgery to replace half of his face and a full eye transplant. James, 46, lost most of his face in 2021 after he accidentally touched a 7,200-volt live wire. The 21-hour surgery was performed by over 140 healthcare professionals at New York University (NYU) Langone Health, making it the world’s first full eye transplant, BBC reported. The rare procedure was successful, and James’ surgeons said he was making a full recovery from the dual transplant.
