Things to do after making the call:

1. Keep both eyes of deceased closed and covered with moist cotton.

2. Switch off the overhead fan.

3. Raise the head end of the body by about 6 inches, if possible - to lessen the incidence of bleeding during the removal of the eyes.

Is there any delay in funeral arrangements?

Eyes removal is done shortly (within half an hour) after death and leaves no visible signs that would interfere with common funeral practices.

Is there religious conflict?

No, Donations gives a gift of life or sight to others. As such, it is consistent with beliefs and attitudes of all major religious and ethical traditions.
