It is unlawful to sell your own eye.

The Law

While donating organs is perfectly legal and heavily encouraged, selling them for a profit is strictly forbidden. The law specifically lists the human eye, along with kidneys and livers, to prevent a dystopian black market of body parts. So if you were hoping to pawn a cornea for some extra rent money, you are out of luck.
