Rare ‘tooth-in-eye’ surgery restores man’s vision after two decades | CNN

The procedure, also known as tooth-in-eye or osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis, involves removing a patient’s tooth, sewing a piece of it into the cheek and placing the structure into their eye.

and here I thought the surgery was to remove a tooth from the eye

And still, there are people out there who think science is a deep state hoax.

I read an article on this like 2 months ago and still don't understand what purpose the tooth has in this situation.
