My SO had her first corneal transplant done at Moorfield (UK) about 8 years ago, and the second in Sydney (AU) earlier this year - in both cases it's astonishing how fast the eye adapts, especially given there's stitches holding the thing in, and they stay in for twelve months and are then removed - ie. not dissolving thread. Specifically, she had better than contact lens corrected over the previous state within a month or two. Actually, equal parts astonishing and depressing, given my eyesight (after several decades spent staring at screens) is guaranteed to get worse, not better, from here on out.
