The cornea can remain viable for transplantation for about 24 to 48 hours after death, provided it is kept in a sterile environment and at a cool temperature. However, its suitability for transplantation diminishes rapidly after the onset of decomposition. Corneal tissue is typically harvested within hours of death to ensure the best chance for successful grafting.
