Yes. I went to the hospital and they did a a blood draw. They had me eat before I came in. The technician then took the blood and separated the blood from the plasma and made the drops. They are put into tubes that hold about 3 drops. You need a dedicated scissors to cut the tubes and you need to use alcohol to clean both the tubes and the scissors every time to eliminate the chance of infections. The plasma is rather thick and coagulates kind of keeping your eye protected.
Hope this helps.

Ok. But that’s not what you said in your first post. You said the doctor had YOU make eye drops with your own blood, use them four times a day and keep them in the freezer. The way you presented it wasn’t possible or sanitary. Never mind the ridiculousness of you drawing your own blood and putting it in your eyes, if you keep blood in the freezer, it would be frozen, so you’d be thawing and refreezing the blood 4 times a day.
