I read that for people over 50 they just replace the cornea with a plastic one. Is that true?

I would not say that's entirely true. People do replace the cornea with an artificial one, but that's only recommended after the natural cornea transplant failure.
Also, I don't think artificial cornea can be used alone, they are combined with donor cornea for better compatibility.
Thanks.
