Routine inquiry legislation can significantly affect procurement of donor eye tissues. Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 97.268 was the first legislation of this type passed in the United States. In the first 12 months under this legislation, the Oregon Lions Eye Bank obtained, 2,312 eyes, sustaining a 135% increase in donor eye procurement over the yearly average for 1984-1985. During the first 12 months of routine inquiry, 484 corneas suitable for penetrating keratoplasty were obtained versus an annual average of 291 corneas for 1984-1985. Tissues for other transplant purposes and for research have similarly become more available. Age of donor tissue appears to be increasing slightly due to the disproportionate increase of donor eyes from the 70-or-over population. The Oregon Donor Program, the public and professional education coalition of the transplant programs in the state of Oregon, has played an invaluable role in making this penalty-free law a success.
常规问询立法会对供体眼组织的获取产生重大影响。俄勒冈州修订法规（ORS）97.268是美国通过的首部此类立法。在该立法实施的头12个月里，俄勒冈狮子眼库获取了2312只眼睛，供体眼获取量比1984 - 1985年的年平均水平增长了135%。在常规问询的头12个月里，获取了484片适合穿透性角膜移植的角膜，而1984 - 1985年的年平均数量为291片。用于其他移植目的和研究的组织同样变得更容易获取。由于70岁及以上人群的供体眼数量不成比例地增加，供体组织的年龄似乎略有上升。俄勒冈供体项目是俄勒冈州移植项目的公共和专业教育联盟，在使这部无惩罚性法律取得成功方面发挥了极其重要的作用。
