I would think that they think that not having vision is riskier than not having hearing.

And you eyes can be transplanted into someone else who could use them after you're dead.

I wonder if you can apply for a loan with your body as collateral.

Oh I didn't know they can do eye transplants.

Good question!

I need a big-ass loan and I keep looking for anything AND everything I can use as collateral.

Perhaps I am wrong:

This is from the National Eye Institute website:

Is a whole eye transplant possible?

The optic nerve, which sends visual signals from the eye to the brain, consists of about one million fibers. Because transplanting a whole eye would require that the optic nerve be cut and then reattached, scientists do not expect that this type of procedure will be possible. Researchers are focusing on how to regenerate damaged optic nerves and how to replace damaged retinal cells with healthy transplants. However, this work is in its early stages and it may be many years before there are any findings that could be used to restore vision in humans.

Makes me think of the movie "Minority Report" where he changed out his eyes from a shady doctor.

Corneal transplant is possible, though:

A corneal transplant, also known as a corneal graft, or as a penetrating keratoplasty, involves the removal of the central portion (called a button) of the diseased cornea and

replacing it with a matched donor button of cornea. Corneal grafts are performed on patients with damaged or scarred corneas that prevent acceptable vision. This may be due to corneal scarring from disease or trauma.
