I don't see any reason that transplant of both corneas could not be done at the same time. With regard to confidentiality, I think that the information of the donor could be released to the patient, unless the donor specifically requests that the information not be disclosed.

Corneal transpants are not done at the same time. The main reason is because if there were to be a complication you would only be risking the loss of one eye.
