There are what we call OPOs, or organ procurement organizations. There are like 50, at least int he US. If you are in the US, and have certified skills that could help these, often you will receive scouting materials, you can also contact UNOS for information about ones local to you.
He’s a surgical laser technician now, he works for one company and gets lent out to hospitals to assist. No idea what company he works for specifically, he lives on the opposite coast and their medical networks are completely different from the ones here. The company I know by name for similar gigs is Agiliti.
Now for gathering eyes from cadavers the positions you’re looking for are in “organ procurement.”
In another life I worked for a nuclear pharmacy and met a lot of the other medical but not medical folks over the years.
Apply for it like any other job. It helps to live near an Eye Bank or organ donation center.
