Who determines the eye bank's pre-recovery eye maintenance procedure?

The person in charge is the medical director, because this role has the clinical authority to set medical standards and procedures that ensure tissue quality and patient safety. The medical director develops and approves the eye bank’s SOPs for pre-recovery eye maintenance, aligns them with regulatory and professional standards (such as those from eye banking associations), and supervises how eyes are preserved and handled before recovery. This ensures consistency, sterility, and suitability of tissue for transplantation. The other roles aren’t responsible for determining these medical procedures: hospital administrators handle operations and policy, not the clinical specifics; donors provide consent but don’t set maintenance protocols; the surgeon general does not oversee individual eye bank procedures.
