据《北京青年报》报道，一名27岁的男子在中国中部湖南省的中南大学湘雅三医院成功接受了猪角膜移植手术，右眼视力开始恢复。
His sight recovered to 0.3 after the operation, according to his doctor, surnamed Cao. The man had necrotic stromal keratitis and could see almost nothing.
根据他的主治医生曹医生介绍，手术后他的视力恢复到了0.3。这名男子患有“坏死性角膜基质炎“，几乎看不到东西。
Treatment required a new cornea, but the number of donated human corneas is far fewer than demand.
要治疗需要新角膜，但是当前人体捐献角膜数量远远达不到需求。
The transplant doesn’t involve placing a pig’s cornea directly on the human eye, oculist Cao explained, but uses the animal’s three-dimensional structure to help form new corneal tissues. The procedure also requires special technological treatment.
眼科医生曹医生说，猪眼角膜移植并不是直接把猪的眼角膜移植到人的眼球上，而是将动物角膜的三维立体结构移植到人的眼球上，形成一个新的角膜组织。这个操作还需要特殊的技术处理。
