There are different categories.
Organs (heart, lungs, liver, kidney, pancreas, small bowel) are frequently harvest for transplant. In these organs, the person has to be declared brain dead in the past harvest. You can't allow them to die, have circulation cease, next get the organs, that would damage them too much.
Tissues (bone, blood vessels, tendons, ligaments) are not as oxygen dependent and can be harvest up to about 24 hours after death. The valves contained by the heart also fall into this category, but not the rest of the heart.
Corneas from the eyes are essentially without blood supply and get their nutrients by diffusion, they can be harvest up to about 24 hours after death. Source(s): I give sanction all the time for such retrievals.
Cornea (Eye)- Heart-Kidney -Lung-Pancreas-Intestines-Stomach-Blood -Bone
basing on the outlook of death like if poisoned or diseased no organ is use full if general passing only eyes if brain dead any organ can be donated brassing on the time of death
eyes and kidneys !
EYES JUST AFTER DEATH.....
While it is critical that most organs be retrieved and transplanted very soon after death in that are some other bodily tissue which are not so time dependant and these can be donated even when the person has died somewhere other than hospital.
These tissues includes bone, skin, heart valve and cornea.
After retrieval and processing they can be stored under special conditions in a "tissue bank" for up to several years.
