Circle of Light Photo Project
A Unique Photography Exhibit
The Circle of Light Photo Project is a collection of photographs taken by people whose sight was restored through eye tissue transplants. The project educates the public about the impact eye tissue donation has on the lives of those in our communities. Eye tissue transplant recipients show the world the things they can now see by participating in this important project. 
This year's exhibit will be featured in local hospitals, libraries and community centers across Colorado and Wyoming. We're very excited to share the recipients' gratitude for restored sight through their photos with our communities! View all the Circle of Light Photo Project exhibit locations.
If you are interested in hosting the Circle of Light Photo Project 2026 exhibit, please connect with us at email us at info@corneas.org.
Can I submit photos?
All cornea transplant recipients can submit your photographs year-round. The most recent selections were finalized in early 2026. Follow us on social and sign-up for our blog to stay up-to-date on when submissions for the next exhibit are open.
What should I take photos of?
That's entirely up to you. We suggest you look around for the things you had trouble seeing or doing before your transplant. Maybe you already have a favorite photo you took after your transplant. If not, we suggest going on a walk through a park or your neighborhood and looking for details in the everyday things you see. Close-ups and landscapes all work. We've had everything from traffic to food, to vacations. Be creative! View past photo submissions.
Where will my photos be displayed?
Selected photos will be showcased in a traveling exhibit in 2026; dates and locations can be viewed here.
