One of the things I have written consent to donate is my eyes. There is a congenital eye disease in my family, and the Wilmer Eye Institute in Baltimore needs the eyes of those in families such as mine, in order to do research. So, I'm still not a true donor (in death), but if examining my eyes will save someone from disease, that's wonderful!
So... that's a new wrinkle: would it bother you to be a donor, and have your organs used not to keep someone else alive, but for research?
ETA: My eyes are only to be harvested by someone from the Wilmer, or who knows what they need.
