British scientists create human corneas using 3D printer The shape of a cornea is formed on a 3D bio-printer in about 10 minutes, and stem cells grow on it to create a human cornea -- although a new bio-ink that contains stem cells will likely speed the process up even more. By HealthDay News \| May 30, 2018 Researchers in Britain are refining a technique to 3D-print human corneas, but say it will likely be a few years before they can start using them in transplants.
