10->''At the same time, the thrones are big many-eyed orb-like things. That have flashy lights. So God rides a chariot made entirely out of multi-eyed flashing orb creatures that are actually angels. I can't help but feel that God would totally win a low-rider contest.''

13Most people only have two eyes. This is generally considered a good thing -- it's part of bilateral symmetry, those elements of nature that make sure you only have two arms and two legs. However, if somebody has ''three or more'' eyes, well... you want to avoid those people. Sometimes they're harmless but freaky, other times they're actively evil, and occasionally they [[ThirdEye represent spiritual enlightenment]]. Sometimes opening a "third eye" shows a level of PsychicPowers, but sometimes a creature will have many eyes so it can ''freak you the fuck out''.
14
15Having some Extra Eyes can become NightmareFuel if done right or NightmareRetardant if done with SpecialEffectsFailure (although if done wrong, it can still be freaky).
16
17Contrast EyelessFace, where it's the ''lack'' of eyes that's freaky, or {{Cyclops}}, for a creature with a single eye. A SisterTrope to EyesDoNotBelongThere, as the extra eyes have to go somewhere, and not always the usual places. SuperTrope to ThirdEye. Also compare and contrast ExtraDigits, which is a subtle and not immediately noticeable physical anomaly.

24[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
25* ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' has quite a few.
26** Unit-02 has four eyes, two per side. It's worth noting that the green eye-orbs on the sides of the Eva's head are artificial; the Eva's real eyes are on the front of the face, behind a shutter-like apparatus. [[spoiler:The Eva permanently loses its upper right eye at the end of Rebuild 2.0 and has a cybernetic replacement in 3.0.]]
27** The ''Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion'' series gave us a number of Evas with an unusual distribution of eyes:
28*** [[spoiler:Unit-01 gains a ThirdEye on the forehead when it enters its [[HeroicRROD pseudo-evolved form]].]]
29*** Mari's Unit-08 has eight green eyes in a vaguely five-pointed-star formation.
30*** The Mark.09 is initially a CyberCyclops of the same head design as Unit-00 but [[spoiler:gets decapitated while breaking Shinji out of WILLE's custody. During the finale, it grows a new head that has two rows of red eyes: six in the top row and four in the bottom row for a total of ten eyes]].
31*** [[spoiler:[[EvilCounterpart Unit-13]] has four eyes that change coloration depending on the pilots' status: yellow during normal operation, red when Shinji takes exclusive control and Kaworu's death causes the lower pair to fade out. Unlike Unit-01, Unit-13 does not gain an extra eye during pseudo-evolution.]]
32*** Not really an Eva but [[spoiler:the [[CoolAirship Wunder]]'s bridge is a hollow head of the same design as the Mark.09's new head, with nine eyes in the top row and seven in the bottom row for a total of sixteen eyes]].
33** Lilith's design in the original series had a purple mask with seven eyes. [[spoiler:The Mark.06's face without its helmet has the same design but in the Eva's case, the eyes appear to be real.]]
34* Hiei of ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'', especially in his demon form, which has eyes sprouting all over his body. In ''WebVideo/YuYuHakushoAbridged'', Yusuke lampshades how being covered in eyes is a bad idea.
35* ''Anime/DragonBallZ'':
36** Tenshinhan has three eyes, which according to WordOfGod comes from having distant alien ancestry.
37** A more alien example would be Guldo of the [[QuirkyMinibossSquad Ginyu Force]], who has four eyes: two on his face, and two larger eyes on the sides of his head. Hence, he's the only member of his team who doesn't wear a scouter.
38* Garyu of ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'', who has four eyes. Also, [[RobotGirl Sein]], who has a third eye built into her right index finger, so that she can see where she is going when she [[{{Intangibility}} passes through solid objects]].
39* ''Anime/YuGiOh'' has a monster called Thousand-Eyes Restrict. It has, well, a thousand eyes, each of which has tremendous hypnotizing potential. Yami must blind all of them simultaneously if he's to have any chance of winning. And he does, of course. By using a combination of Kuriboh and the Magic Card Multiply. Who says that little fluff ball's useless?
40* ''Anime/YuGiOhGX'' has a good example of it with Yubel which is justified by her being a (In Japan hermaphroditic) demon at the time. In the flashback when she was human she had 2 eyes.
41* ''Anime/YuGiOh5Ds'' also has the Hundred Eye Dragon, which is easy enough to describe.
42** Infernity Death Dragon also has a ludicrous number of eyes, but at least they're all on its ''head''.
43* ''Anime/YuGiOhArcV'' has Raid Raptors - Rise Falcon, a mechanical falcon with six red eyes that light up ominously on its head.
44* In ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'', Alucard's {{hellhound}} familiar/transformation is basically an amorphous dog-like mass of eyes and shadows. Alucard himself also has a number of eyes that appear on his body sometimes when he is released.
45* The long running {{manga}} series ''Manga/SazanEyes'' [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin revolves around this trope]].
46* In ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', Envy's true form has extra ''everything'', but the creepiest are the many, many eyes which can be found, among other places, on his tongue and gums, and ''in the corners of his eyes'', like frogs' eggs.
47** Also Pride and Father's true forms...
48* Kishin Asura, the BigBad of ''Manga/SoulEater'', has black hair patterned with white to look like eyes, has a third eye on his forehead, and [[RuleOfCool has another pair of eyes where his pupils should be.]]
49** He also has eye markings on the back of his hands, and on the skin scarves that cover his head sometimes.
50* Wisely from ''Manga/DGrayMan'' has five eyes; the three on his forehead can read minds.
51* Zommari Le Roux, Espada #7 of ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' fame, has many extra eyes in his [[OneWingedAngel power-up form]]. Initially, it's stated(by his opponent) that he only has fifty, but after guarding against the attack said opponent was using on him, he reveals a couple more eyes hidden in slits in his forehead.
52** And on the subject of ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'', there's his boss, Aizen. The final forms that he changed into as the Hougyouku [[MyKungFuIsStrongerThanYours ascended him]] had lots of eyes.
53* ''Manga/{{MAR}}'''s Chimera has multiple eyes hidden under her bangs.
54* Some aliens in ''Manga/SpaceAdventureCobra'' are four-eyed humanoids. Most notably Dan Brad in the "Rug-ball" story arc, the captain of the rival team. He proves to be a WorthyOpponent in the end.
55* In ''Anime/HareGuu'', [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Guu-many_eyes_2782.jpg Guu]] sports these once or twice.
56* ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'':
57** In ''Anime/DigimonTamers'', all of the Four Holy Beasts/Sovereigns have four eyes. Xuanwumon/[[DubNameChange Ebonwumon]] pulls this off by having [[MultipleHeadCase two heads]]. There's also Beelzebumon from that season (and from ''[[Anime/DigimonFusion Fusion]]''), who has three eyes.
58** ''Anime/DigimonFrontier'' introduces us to Duskmon, the [[spoiler:corrupted]] Human Spirit of Darkness, who has ''nine'' eyes (only two are on his face), and Sefirotmon/[[DubNameChange Sakkakumon]], who is basically made of eyes.
59** Shademon from the ''Manga/DigimonXrosWars'' manga is a vaguely-animalistic mass of shadow and eyes that possesses people.
60** In ''Anime/DigimonXrosWarsTheYoungHuntersWhoLeaptThroughTime'', [[BigBad Quartzmon]]'s humanoid section has six eyes on its face, which also appears on the tiny cube that is its core.
61** Charismon from ''Anime/DigimonUniverseAppMonsters'' has eyes all over his armor, from which he deploys his (also eyeball-themed) drones for both SinisterSurveillance, [[BeamSpam laser-y death]], and [[DeflectorShields defensive barriers]].
62** Eyesmon from ''Anime/DigimonAdventure2020'' is basically a serpentine LivingShadow covered in eyes, with the ones on its head capable of doing Duskmon-style {{Beam Spam}}s. Its final form, Nidhoggmon, is a city-sized serpentine abomination also covered in eyes, [[EyesDoNotBelongThere including on its tongue]]. [=NeoDevimon=] also has six eyes in place of a normal face.
63* The Abh from ''Literature/CrestOfTheStars'' have this as one of their more overlooked differences from non-modified humans. All (genetic) Abh have a diamond shaped compound eye in the middle of their foreheads. Most of the time on screen it is covered by some sort of head gear which is used to connect to computer systems as part of their UnusualUserInterface.
64* ''Manga/MonsterMusume'': Rachnera the [[SpiderPeople arachne]] has three sets of eyes on her face.
65* ''Manga/NekoMusumeMichikusaNikki'': The Jorou Kumo (a shapeshifting giant spider) has six eyes in human form: two in the human-standard position, and four eyeballs forming an arc across the top of her head.
66* In ''Manga/GetterRobo Armageddon'', Invaders can have eyes anywhere. A common sign that an organism has been infected by them is the appearance of eyes and claws in strange places, like peeping out of a head wound.
67* ''Manga/SgtFrog'':
68** Gyororo, with a total count of 7! And... [[EyeBeams they also shoot lasers]]... for some reason...
69** Nevula (Alisa's "Daddy") can open multiple eyes at random but usually just looks at the world through one.
70* Fafnir in ''Manga/MissKobayashisDragonMaid'' has four eyes in his dragon form, which is probably supposed to be a VisualPun on the fact that he wears glasses in his human form.
71* ''Manga/CaterpillarGirlAndBadTexterBoy'': Suzume and Yutaka's true form have six eyes, three on either side of their head.
72* ''Manga/JujutsuKaisen'': The king of curses, Ryomen Sukuna, has another set of eyes under the normal ones and can manifest eyes and mounths on his host's body, much to the guy's [[DissonantSerenity annoyance]].
73* ''Literature/TrappedInADatingSimTheWorldOfOtomeGamesIsToughForMobs'': This is a visual theme of the LivingWeapon OrganicTechnology left behind by the 'New Mankind' AbusivePrecursors, including [[TheRemnant most monsters]].
74* ''Anime/MyDaemon'': Several Daemons have more eyes than just two. Including the main character's Daemon Anna, who has eyes all over her body.
75[[/folder]]
76
77[[folder:Asian Animation]]
78* ''Animation/SimpleSamosa'' depicts potatoes as having multiple eyeballs scattered throughout their body on top of having the two on their face, a VisualPun on the fact that the little spots on real-life potatoes are called eyes.
79[[/folder]]
80
81[[folder:Card Games]]
82* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'': Old Stickfingers has multiple eyes, although the precise number seems to change from moment to moment, all of them looking right at you.
83[[/folder]]
84
85[[folder:Comic Books]]
86%%* ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'': Eye-ful Ethel.
87* ''Franchise/TheDCU'':
88** The demon lord Trigon and many of his servants sport an extra pair of eyes. (So does his daughter Raven from the ComicBook/TeenTitans, when she is really really angry, possessed or whatnot.)
89** ''ComicBook/GreenLantern'':
90*** The Green Lantern Gala De is a three-eyed extraterrestrial.
91*** The Green Lantern [=MukMuk=] is a fish-like extraterrestrial with eight eyes.
92*** The Green Lantern Squillic is a tentacled spindly legged extraterrestrial with four eyes.

102** In ''ComicBook/TheLastDaysOfSuperman'', an abyssal monster sports an extra pair of eyes on the back of its head
103** In ''ComicBook/SupermanSupergirlMaelstrom'', gerbil-like, four-eyed critters can be seen scampering around an exotic jungle as Kal and Kara are exploring an alien world.
104** ''Franchise/WonderWoman'' [[ComicBook/WonderWoman1987 Vol 2]] & [[ComicBook/WonderWoman2006 Vol 3]]: The Hekatonkheires like Cottus have a hundred eyes.
105* ''ComicBook/WolverineAndTheXMenMarvelComics'': Eye-boy has a body completely covered in eyes.
106* ''ComicBook/TwoThousandAD'': Abelard Snazz, the man with [[MyBrainIsBig the two-storey brain]],, has two sets of eyes to go with his double-decker dome.
107* ''ComicBook/{{Copperhead}}'': The alien Natives have five eyes set in a symmetric cluster on their foreheads.
108* ''ComicBook/RedRobin'': The villain Goliath (one of a group of spider-themed villains) has a total of four eyes. He's also got six arms and a very non-human mouth and his origins are never disclosed.
109* ''ComicBook/{{Vampirella}}'': The "Walker of Worlds" from the last Warren #112 ([[TheBusCameBack 2018 dug out again for the Pathfinder Xover]]), although technically the eyes are not a part of his body.
110* ''ComicBook/SensationComicsFeaturingWonderWoman'': In "Venus Rising" The giant creatures on Venus have six eyes.
111* ''ComicBook/{{Psychonaut}}'': The [[InsectoidAliens Xenosians]] have six eyes.

116[[/folder]]
117
118[[folder:Comic Strips]]

120[[/folder]]
121
122[[folder:Eastern European Animation]]
123* ''Animation/VizipokCsodapok'': The two main spider characters both have eight eyes, although most of the time they keep six of them closed. Oddly averted with the flower crab spiders, who have only one pair of eyes and are puzzled by the extra eyes of the water spider and the diadem spider.
124[[/folder]]
125
126[[folder:Fan Works]]
127* Although never directly stated in the script, this is the logical conclusion that can be drawn from [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Commander Killemall]] being described as having red eyes and black eyes in the same sentence in ''Fanfic/TwilightSparklesAwesomeAdventure''.
128* The D-Nightmare from the ''Fanfic/TamersForeverSeries'' is absolutely ''covered'' in eyes, further enhancing its EldritchAbomination status.
129* [[KnightTemplar Nightmare Mirror]], minor antagonist from the ''Fanfic/PonyPOVSeries'', has extra eyes on ''her wings''. Lots of them.
130* In the ''Zelda'' fic ''Fanfic/SurfaceTension'' Ruto and Sheik fight a monster with numerous eyes. It even has eyes inside its eye tentacles.
131* ''Fanfic/ThePowerOfTheEquinox'':
132** [[TheHeartless The Entity]] that transforms Twilight Sparkle into [[SuperPoweredEvilSide Dimmed Star]] seems to have three red eyes that are situated in a triangular pattern. When it [[DemonicPossession possesses her]] in the sixth chapter, [[TransformationOfThePossessed a third red eye grows beneath her horn]].
133** One of the few things that's revealed of the appearance of [[TheManBehindTheMan Queen Chrysalis' mysterious superior]] is that she has four red eyes.
134* ''Fanfic/ADiplomaticVisit'': In chapter 11 of the third story, ''Diplomacy Through Schooling'', [[spoiler: Twilight's full-powered form as the Lady of Magic has at least a dozen eyes.]]
135* The angel [[Literature/GoodOmens Aziraphale]] is either a cherub or a principality, depending on which bit of the novel you're basing your fic on. Either way, like the page quote, fans agree his [[AngelicAbomination True Form]] has eyes everywhere.
136* ''Fanfic/{{DNMC}}'' featured a [[LittleBitBeastly Faunus]] with fly eyes instead of normal eyes.
137* ''Fanfic/{{Evershade}}'': In ''Reforming'': This is mentioned as something Kyle's mutation didn't do:
138--> It didn't reproduce any other organs of limbs in the same way. No second bladder, no second set of eyes, not even shedding off an extra layer of skin."
139[[/folder]]
140
141[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
142* Cobra Commander in ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeTheMovie'', as the result of an experiment gone horribly wrong. Oddly enough, as he was turning into a snake ("I wassss oncccce a man!"), his extra eyes gradually disappeared, and when he was restored to a humanoid state in the [=DiC=]-produced "Operation: Dragonfire", he retained only his original two eyes.
143* The [[spoiler: Green Death]] from ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'' has six eyes, three on each side.
144* Many of the monsters in ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc1'' have multiple eyes. One even has extra eyes applied before going to work.
145* Squishy from ''WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity'' has five eyes.
146* Gallaxhar, the BigBad in ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens'' has four eyes. By contrast, all of the monsters (save the [[{{Cyclops}} one-eyed]] B.O.B.) have the usual two.
147* Jumba from ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'' has four eyes, ironically unlike his genetic experiments who have two eyes.
148* The mutated squirrel in ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsonsMovie'' has four rows worth of eyes.
149* Captain Flint in the ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'' prologue has six eyes.
150[[/folder]]
151
152[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
153* Sammael in ''Film/Hellboy2004'' has three eyes on his face, one on the left side and two on the right.
154* Taking a cue from ''Literature/TheBible'', the Angel of Death from ''Film/HellboyIITheGoldenArmy'', had multiple eyes in her wings... and [[EyelessFace none on her face]].
155* One of the two aliens in the stinger of ''Film/StepsTroddenBlack'' is a crab like creature with four eyes.
156* Nearly all of the native Pandoran animals in ''Film/{{Avatar}}'' have four eyes.
157* In ''Film/{{Beetlejuice}}'', the Maitlands try altering their features to scare the new tenants away - Adam stretches his face out by the nose, plunks two fingers into his eye sockets, and ends up with an eyeball on the tip of all ten fingers.
158* ''Film/PacificRim'': Many of the {{Kaiju}} have these. Surprising no one, concept artist Creator/WayneBarlowe worked on both this film and ''Avatar'', above.
159** Mutavore has six eyes [[EyesDoNotBelongThere on the sides of her lower jaw]].
160** Slattern has four eyes, two on each side of a hammerhead shark-like crest.
161** Leatherback also has six eyes, one large pair and two smaller ones.
162** Otachi has two eyes, but her two head-crests also have two small spots each, which glow yellow like her primary eyes and therefore are frequently seen as smaller eyes or another kind of sensory organ.
163** Raiju and Scunner both have four eyes each.
164* ''Film/HouseShark'': The titular shark has a third eye located next to the one on the right side of its face.
165* The [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail Black Beast of Aaaaaaargh]] has a pretty large number of eyes.
166* The Controllers from ''Film/MoscowCassiopeia'' have eight. Apparently, the actors playing them were really uncomfortable during filming, as the glasses that quadrupled each of their eyes quadrupled all of their vision as well.
167[[/folder]]
168
169[[folder:Literature]]
170* ''Literature/CakesInSpace'': The Poglites, as well as quite a few of the cake monsters, have plenty of eyes.
171* ''Literature/CarnivalInAFix'': A number of background characters in the book have varying numbers of eyes, them being aliens and all. One notable example is Professor Floomish Spoob, the three-eyed alien who runs the Learny-Go-Round.
172* Triclops and Trioculus (the so-called "Emperor's son") from the ''Star Wars: Jedi Prince'' series.
173* ''[[Literature/TheCrewOfTheCopperColoredCupids The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]'':
174** Marquis Shax in ''[[https://thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/2020/03/22/the-dark-cabaret/ The Dark Carbet]]'' has a ring of eyes floating around him in addition to the two on his face.
175** The Star Vampire in ''[[https://thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/2022/07/16/marksmanship-526-and-the-secret-society-stratagem-part-two/ Marksmanship-526 and the Secret Society Stratagem]]'' is described as having "far too many eyes for its own good. Or, more accurately, for anyone else's good".
176* ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'': Blind Io doesn't have any eyes on his face, but rather they float around him and he can send them out to spy on anyone he likes.
177** Being inspired by Odin, Blind Io was also originally accompanied by a pair of ravens... but he had to get rid of them because they occasionally snacked on his floating eyes.
178** Twoflower was accidentally portrayed as having four eyes on the cover of ''The Colour of Magic'' when artist Josh Kirby took the book's description of Twoflower's glasses a bit too literally.
179* ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'':
180** Andalites have four eyes -- two in the regular spot on their faces, and two [[EyeOnAStalk eye stalks]] that can rotate around for 360-degree vision.
181** Taxxons have four eyes on stalks in a ring around their mouth.
182* Several examples from the Franchise/CthulhuMythos:
183** The barrel-shaped Elder Things in the story ''At the Mountains of Madness'' has 5 eyes on stalks.
184** Yog-Sothoth is sometimes depicted as having many eyes on stalks.
185*** When depicted at all, he's normally described as a cluster of iridescent globes akin to soap-bubbles, except several miles wide. His half-human sons did have several, though -- Wilbur had two extra on his pelvis, and the other one had lots and lots in all sorts of odd places.
186*** [[TheUnspeakableVaultOfDoom Don't call me soap! *ZAP!*]]
187* [[Literature/FafhrdAndTheGrayMouser Nigauble of the Seven Eyes]] had seven (okay, sometimes only six) glowing eyes.
188* Chun the Unavoidable from ''The Dying Earth''.
189** Does wearing them stitched to his cape ''count''?
190* In Keith Laumer's ''Literature/{{Retief}}'' stories, the somewhat insectile Groaci have five eyes on stalks. Retief once whistled in admiration at the dexterity with which two Groaci each looked in several directions at once.
191* The Elabrej from ''Literature/StarTrekKlingonEmpire'' have eyes all over. Actually, given their initial confusion regarding the Klingon eye, it's more like they're covered with light-sensing organs that are equivalent to eyes.
192* In Creator/RobertSilverberg's ''Literature/MajipoorSeries'', the Liimen, one of the several races found on Majipoor, generally working at menial jobs, have three eyes.
193* In Creator/StephenKing's short story "I Am the Doorway," a former astronaut discovers eyes growing from his fingertips. The eyes are being used by an alien entity to reconnoiter Earth.
194* In ''Literature/TheButterflyBallAndTheGrasshoppersFeast'', Miss Aranea Money Spider takes a long time putting on her eye makeup, because she has eight eyes.
195* Seen in several alien species in the ''Literature/PerryRhodan'' universe. This is usually little more than descriptive detail, but becomes a plot point in one issue during the "Second Empire" arc when disguised human agents on a hostile planet give themselves away and get captured because the locals literally have two extra eyes in the backs of their heads while the agents, despite their masks, can still only see in one direction. (The first to inadvertantly tip an alien off does so simply by ''turning around to address him''.)
196* In ''Literature/DisgustingMcGrossface'', a nine-eyed monster is seen on the police sketch.
197* ''Literature/MonsterOfTheMonthClub'': Icicle, the January Selection, has seven eyes on his face. Averted by the other eleven monsters, who just have two apiece.
198* In ''Literature/TheFold'' both the seraphs and the patchwork man have one normal human-ish eye opposite two beady insect eyes in the other socket.
199* ''Literature/SoulDrinker'': Givrillian grows a number of extra eyes from a facial scar.
200* ''Literature/TheScholomance'': Maw-mouth {{Blob Monster}}s are covered in the stolen eyes of everyone they've consumed.
201* ''Literature/AngelaNicely'': In “Cupcake Wars!”, Darren decorates his cupcake to look like a three-eyed monster.
202[[/folder]]
203
204[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
205* ''Series/BattlestarGalactica1978'': The original pilot movie features a trio of singers with four eyes and two mouths each, using really terrifying special effects.
206* ''Series/TheDickVanDykeShow'': In "It May Look Like A Walnut", they do a science fiction episode as AllJustADream where people live on walnuts and water (which they call "air") and grow eyes in the back of their heads after watching a scary movie. Website/TheOtherWiki's description of it is awesome: "Under the influence of science fiction, Rob fears that a walnut will steal his imagination and his thumbs. Danny Thomas guest-stars."
207* One of the critters on a Discovery Channel program about hypothetical alien lifeforms has four eyes: one pair for vision on the always-dark side of its planet, the other pair for use on its ever-lit side. The creature is a predator that hunts along the equator, from a planet where one pole points directly at its sun.
208* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
209** Classic series Silurians have a third eye in the middle of their forehead which gives them psychic powers.
210** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS37E6DemonsOfThePunjab "Demons of the Punjab"]]: The Thijarians have so many eyes, it's hard to get an accurate count.
211* ''Series/Extraterrestrial2005'':
212** The gulpogs of Aurelia have a third eye on the top of their heads, which they use to detect the beginning of solar flares in order to take shelter before the worst of the flare comes.
213** The stalkers of the blue moon have three eyes in a ring around their heads, giving them 360 degrees of vision.
214* ''Series/{{Farscape}}'': The mantis-like green alien has multiple removable eyes with special properties.
215* In the Creator/{{CBBC}} series ''Me and My Monsters'' Fiend has literally got eyes in the back of his head including a red one on a stalk on the top of his head. Which MakesSenseInContext as he usually acts as a Lookout and the boss while Haggis and Norman do EVERYTHING...
216* ''Franchise/PowerRangers''/''Franchise/SuperSentai'':
217** Shuten/Retinax of ''Series/HyakujuuSentaiGaoranger''/''Series/PowerRangersWildForce'', has eyes all over his body.
218** Of course, there's classic, recurring ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers'' MonsterOfTheWeek Eye Guy, whose body was covered with eyes, and who could split into a mass of flying eyes and reform when damaged. (The main eye, the giant one in his face, is his weak spot.)
219* ''Series/TheTwilightZone1959'': At the end of "[[Recap/TheTwilightZone1959S2E28WillTheRealMartianPleaseStandUp Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up?]]", one of the characters proves that he's an alien by taking off his cap and revealing the third eye in the middle of his forehead.
220* ''Series/TheTwilightZone1985'': In "The Uncle Devil Show", Joey uses the magic that he learns from the ''Tim Ferret and Friends'' video to give his pet poodle Ben four eyes.

223[[folder:Music]]
224* Music/TheMisfits' "20 Eyes" is all about this trope.
225[[/folder]]
226
227[[folder:Music Videos]]
228* A great deal of Tool's music videos are a fan of this.
229[[/folder]]
230
231[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
232* This trope is OlderThanFeudalism with [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argus_Panoptes Argos Panoptes]], or Argos All-eyes, a giant in Greek mythology who had four eyes (or two faces) in early versions of his myth, and 100 eyes all over his body in later stories. It is said that he was the one who killed Echidna, [[MotherOfAThousandYoung the monster who gave birth to nearly every other monster in Greek mythology]] and later on was tasked by Hera to guard Io (who she had [[ForcedTransformation turned into a white cow]]) from her philandering husband Zeus and as such was slain by Hermes. Afterwards, Hera used his countless eyes to make [[JustSoStory the pattern on the peacock's tail]].
233* Descriptions of Angels in ''Literature/TheBible'' portray them as having multiple eyes, wings, and heads (and many combinations thereof). Since most of these are in either the symbol-heavy apocalyptic genre (Revelations) or the prophetic visions ([[Literature/BookOfEzekiel Ezekiel]]), they are probably not meant to be taken literally.
234* [[Myth/HinduMythology Indra.]] When it came to horndoggery, he was at par with Zeus. It was a bad idea to screw over Sage Gautama (or more precise, his wife) and an even worse one to get caught in flagranti. The sage cursed him with a thousand...[[NotSafeForWork let's keep it at]] that it were only eyes after Brahma put in a good word for Indra.
235[[/folder]]
236
237[[folder:Pinballs]]
238* Many of the aliens in ''Pinball/BigBangBar'' either have extra eyes or [[{{Cyclops}} just one.]]
239[[/folder]]
240
241[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
242* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'':
243** Beholders have one large central eye and ten smaller ones on eyestalks. With a busload of subspecies and related creatures, even more in the ''TabletopGame/{{Spelljammer}}'' setting. And in most it's [[EyeBeams far from a decorative feature]].
244** The gibbering mouther is a monster that's essentially a gelatinous mass covered with eyes and constantly jabbering mouths. In some editions, they gain an eye every time they eat a victim.
245** This is also the form of Moander, [[OddJobGods god of decay]], who appears as a pile of rotting stuff swarming with stalks-tentacles ending with eyes, mouths and whole bodies it absorbed.
246** The umber hulk (think a hybrid of a stag beetle and a gorilla) has four eyes, two of which can cause confusion in an observer. The 1st Edition ''Monster Manual'' artwork actually played this off well, portraying the creature in such a way that the viewer's attention repeatedly moves from its insectile outer pair of eyes to its human-like inner pair, switching back and forth in a vain attempt to "meet its gaze". Confusion, indeed, much like an optical illusion.
247** The ''Book of Vile Darkness'' contains a spell that blocks a corridor by summoning a shifting wall of eyeballs. Not only is it hard to get through but anyone who gets too close will be sucked in and turned liquid, his eyes added to the wall.
248** In 3.5th edition, there exists a group of magic 'items' called grafts. These are generally organic things which can be pernamently added to a character's body to give some bonus or new ability. There's a whole slew of eye-based grafts, courtesy of Beholder Cultists.
249** Aboleths have three eyes which, unusually, are all aligned vertically.
250** Father Llymic has three eyes in a horizontal row, which is also the only consistent physical trait that his brood shares.
251* ''TabletopGame/InNomine'': Seraphim and their {{Evil Counterpart}}s Balseraphs appear as six-eyed winged serpents in their true forms.
252* ''TabletopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'': While there are exceptions, art of fungus leshys usually depicts them with multiple eyes scattered across their faces.
253* ''TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade'' has the Salubri, a vampire clan whose biggest distinguishing feature is the third eye on their forehead. Due to the diablerie of their clan's founder Saulot by [[BloodMagic Tremere]] and the long campaign of demonization they suffered, they're nearly extinct, with very few modern Kindred being part of the clan, and most being in hiding.
254* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'': The growth of additional eyes is a very common Chaos mutation. Of particular note are the Navis Nobilite, who are a sanctioned noble caste of stable mutants whose forehead-mounted third eye allows them to see, understand and navigate [[HyperspaceIsAScaryPlace the Warp]]. Its other properties are unclear, but it's been stated by at least one author that looking into it will send normal men mad, and by others that it's an outright OneHitKill.
255* ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'': After millennia of worshipping the Spider God and exposing themselves to the toxins of countless spider species, some Forest Goblins have developed... unusual traits. The Goblin Great Shaman model attached to the Catchweb Spidershrine mount in 8th Edition, for instance, has three pairs of eyes stacked vertically, mimicking the spiders that he worships.

258[[folder:Theme Parks]]
259* On the Green Planet in ''Ride/ETAdventure'' at Ride/UniversalStudios, some of the aliens have multiple eyes completely surrounding their heads.
260[[/folder]]
261
262[[folder:Toys]]
263* ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'', for all its crazy-looking characters, doesn't have many examples to offer. There is Kalmah, the [[TentacledTerror squid]]-[[AnimalMotifs inspired]] Barraki warlord, who has a third eye on his forehead. Though he can't use it, as Pridak blinded it by ''[[EyeScream stabbing it to the point of not working anymore]]'' in a dispute.
264[[/folder]]
265
266[[folder:Video Games]]
267* Octeyes, the second boss of ''VideoGame/AlteredBeast1988'', is almost nothing ''but'' eyes, and it can launch masses of them at its enemies as projectiles.
268* Orendi from ''VideoGame/{{Battleborn}}'' has [[MultiArmedAndDangerous four arms]] with [[EyesDoNotBelongThere an eye in the palm of each hand]]. Including the two she has on her face, she has in total six eyes.
269* ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'' has a Third Eye option for faces, as well as one option with what appears to be four alien eyes on each side of the face.
270* Boobus Tuber, an enemy in ''VideoGame/CommanderKeen'', has multiple eyes. This is fitting, since he's a potato.
271* In ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsI'', the [[http://darksouls.wikidot.com/channeler Channeler]] enemy has six eyes across three rows.
272* Subverted with Q-Bee in the ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'' series. The two eyes on top of her head are in fact her only eyes. The ones in the "normal" place on her face are fakes. That's why she always has her head bowed.
273* ''VideoGame/DCUniverseOnline'' also has Trigon and his minions. The Teen Titans each play their part in one version of the story.
274* ''VideoGame/DeathPark'': The MonsterClown that stalks you has three eyes on the left side of its head.
275* ''VideoGame/GoneGolfing'': At one point, you have to bring someone's twelve-eyed fish back to its frame.
276* ''VideoGame/TheGuardianLegend'': The late-game bosses Eyegore and Grimgrin are floating, pulsating masses of flesh and eyes. Also, the bosses of Corridors 17 and 7 are clusters of 4 large and 8 small eyes that shoot eyeballs at you.
277* ''VideoGame/{{Hanako}}'': One of the wanderers pursuing the PlayerCharacter has a body covered in eyes.
278* In ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'', several alien species you encounter on Vertumna have multiple eyes:
279** The Eyebeasts that attack the colony at the end of the first year have eyes all over their bodies, and no one could tell which end is which.
280** The Hopeyes are one-legged kangaroo rat-like aliens with two pairs of eyes, one of which is extra large and sits where their ears would normally be.
281* ''VideoGame/HalfLife'': The Vortigaunts have one big eye and five smaller ones, [[ArtEvolution or three smaller ones in]] [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 the sequel.]]
282* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaI'': Vires have four eyes, one pair above the other. Their depictions in later games have just two.
283* ''VideoGame/{{Marathon}}'': The Pfhor have three eyes.
284* ''Franchise/MassEffect'':
285** Batarians have four eyes; one pair of two above the other. They have a hard time reading facial expressions on the two-eyed faces of most species, as they're used to reading four eyes. For their part, two-eyed species often have trouble deciding which eyes to focus on.
286** Protheans/[[spoiler:Collectors]] also have four eyes, but they have two eyes on each side of their head, forming a horizontal line of four. Their eyes appear to be able to move independently of one another. A Prothean who'd been in [[HumanPopsicle suspended animation]] for a ''very'' long time asks "How do you see with only two eyes?"
287** The yahg, a pre-spaceflight race of apex predators from the planet Parnack, have ''eight'' eyes.
288* ''VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams'': Wizeman has six eyes, one on each floating hand.
289* One of the playable characters from ''VideoGame/NuclearThrone'' is a blue, skinny creature with eyes covering his entire head. Naturally, his name is Eyes.
290* The [[{{Mooks}} Tyhrranoids]] of ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal'' have varying numbers of eyes [[EyeOnAStalk on tall stalks]] as their main features. The number of eyes denotes how strong they are. While some of them have [[{{Cyclops}} one]] or two eyes (who appear as CannonFodder and mech/saucer pilots, respectively), three-eyed 'Noids are tough ground troops, and four-eyed 'Noids are even ''[[DemonicSpiders tougher]]'' and are implied to be field commanders. Finally, there's the [[KingMook Big Momma Tyhrranoid]], who has ''nine'' eyes.
291* There are a few Franchise/{{Pokemon}} with additional hidden eyes where you might not have expected them to be:
292** Tyranitar's chestplate vaguely resembles Pupitar's face. Where the eyes would be appears to simply be holes in the chestplate, at least until Tyranitar undergoes Mega Evolution, upon which the eyes open up down there.
293** Subverted with Meowstic, Pokémon based on the Scottish Fold breed of housecats. Meowstic's ears are normally folded, but they can open up to reveal what appears to be more eyes, but the truth may be even freakier in that they are actually extra ''brains''.
294** [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] with Stakataka: It resembles a crude brick building, and every single brick it's made of has a glowing blue eye of its own. Most of them are merely facing inward, though more of them will turn around to face out whenever it attacks.
295** Mr. Rime looks innocent enough, but he has [[EyesDoNotBelongThere an extra pair of eyes on his torso]]. Their expression is synchronized with Mr. Rime's normal eyes.
296* In ''[[VideoGame/PurgatoryRPGMaker Purgatory 2]]'', the GiantSpiders have these.
297** The hellbeasts have 12 eyes instead of the eight most spiders have.
298** D-033 has a human face with only 2 eyes, but has various eyes all over its body.
299* ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'':
300** ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'': [[BigBad Saddler]], in addition to the massive {{Combat Tentacle|s}} he has (ahem) "down there", has a huge third eyeball hidden inside his mouth.
301** ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'': The [[OurZombiesAreDifferent J'avo]] look and act human, save for the bleeding extra eyes that burst through the skin on their forehead. It gets a hell of a lot ''worse'' when you shoot their limbs and they start sprouting [[BodyHorror bug limbs to replace them]]...
302* Most of the Chimeran creatures from the ''VideoGame/{{Resistance}}'' games have extra eyes. The Hybrids, for example, have six.
303-->"Remember; two eyes goods, six eyes bad!"
304* ''VideoGame/SoManyMe'': The {{Mook}}s in purple jumpsuits have three visors, one for each eye.
305* ''VideoGame/{{Spore}}'': The creature creation tools lend themselves so well to this that almost any depiction of creatures for a CosmeticAward will have three eyes.
306* ''VideoGame/StarOceanTheSecondStory'': Opera and Ernest both have three eyes, though the third eye isn't all that noticeable. Both are quite nice people and come from a planet, Tetragenes, where everyone has three eyes.
307* ''VideoGame/TimothyVsTheAliens'': While the smaller aliens are [[{{Cyclops}} cyclopic]], the larger ones have six eyes.
308* ''VideoGame/TotalWarWarhammerIII'': This one of the major aesthetic themes of the [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Daemons of Tzeentch]], alongside the theme of single huge eyes.
309* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'':
310** [[BrilliantButLazy Yukari]] [[RealityWarper Yakumo]] can open dimensional gaps which are typically full of eyes.
311** In ''Subterranean Animism'', three of the characters have a third eye on their chest. Two of them ([[SpeciesSurname Satori]] and [[StrongerSibling Koishi]] [[MindOverManners Komeiji]]) have theirs on their [[{{Squick}} external]] [[EyesDoNotBelongThere hearts]] and have psychic powers because of it. Satori plays the trope straight, as her eye is open and allows her to read thoughts. Koishi subverts it, as she permanently CLOSED her eye, because AMindIsATerribleThingToRead and [[ForgotAboutTheMindReader reading it]] [[BlessedWithSuck makes people hate you]], in the process shutting down her own feelings and thoughts, but this in turn allows her to manipulate people's subconscious. The third one, Utsuho Reiuji, has a massive eye à la [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Sauron]] in her chest, but it seems to be either decorative or a reactor.
312* In ''VideoGame/WhereInSpaceIsCarmenSandiego'', suspects can have zero, one, two, or many eyes.
313* ''VideoGame/{{Wipeout}}'': Burnston Burns, the founder of Icaras, had an extra pair of eyes implanted on his forehead as a publicity stunt for his eyeglasses company.
314* In ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', C'Thun is an [[EldritchAbomination Old God]] who is primarily eye-themed.

323* Stolas from ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'' has a second pair of eyes on top of his head.
324* ''WebAnimation/RobosanAndWanchan'': Robo-san encounters a [[spoiler:RockMonster bigger than him]] in a cave in a mountain. Said [[spoiler:RockMonster]] has twelve eyes.
325* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'': Many Grimm have multiple sets of eyes, even when they're based on animals. Boarbatusks, Nevermores, Megaliath, the Wyvern, and so on, can look dangerous enough with their huge forms, natural weapons and murderous intentions, but multiple flaming eyes that move in sync with each other when tracking human movements add to creepiness and horror of these monsters.
326[[/folder]]

328[[folder:Webcomics]]
329* In ''Webcomic/BallAndChain'', the character Dahlia has an extra eye on her back.
330* The giant snake-demon in ''[[Webcomic/FifteenMinds Blue Moon Blossom]]'' [[spoiler:that assaulted the bunny's village]] has one single large eye and a bunch of smaller eyes all across its head and up and down its body.
331* Mr. Scapegrace of ''Webcomic/DaddyLongLegs'' has eight eyes, [[JustifiedTrope but]] although he is highly anthropomorphic otherwise, he is still a cellar spider, and his eyes are arranged in a realistic way.
332* The shadowbeast from ''Webcomic/ChampionsOfFaraus''.It has three eyes on each side of its head, so six in all.
333* ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' has [[http://www.missmab.com/Cast/matilda.php Matilda]], who has a third eye on her forehead, and [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Abel_12.php Cindy]], who was born with an eye on the palm of her hand because her father was exposed to too much magic. Both are friendly types.
334* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', the Bloodgrem, The Omega Goo, and Sirleck all have more than two eyes. In the case of the Bloodgrem and Sirleck these make them look like spider-like while The Omega Goo's eyes are placed randomly as are its mouths.
335* ''Webcomic/FrogRaccoonStrawberry'''s friend Marissa is of an alien race which has seven eyes, two big ones on either side of her nose and five smaller ones that she hides rather well.
336* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'': Some of the Geisterdamen's monstrous mounts seen when they are leaving Sturmhalten have [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20060710 a disturbingly large number of eyes.]]
337* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'':
338** Coyote has many eyes scattered all over his body. Like the rest of him, they are rather stylised. A side story [[https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/extracomics/comic.php?c=Coyote&p=11 reveals]] that the same is true of the Japanese dog-spirit Inugami, who Coyote [[https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/extracomics/comic.php?c=Coyote&p=12 stole the look from]].
339** Lindsey, the giant sea-scorpion-thing who supervises the Year 9 girls' dorm, has 47 eyes, and 15 not-eyes.
340* In ''Webcomic/TheHandbookOfHeroes'', the Thief has bangs for most of the early comics, making the look of her eyes a mystery. That is, until her lover the Wizard gets curious and lifts up her bangs while in bed, revealing three pairs of eyes in rows. She is a tiefling, whose traits can vary depending on their demon ancestry, the Thief's being spider-demons from Lolth's domain.
341* ''Webcomic/HaruSari'': A race of people named Thestalians have four eyes.
342* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
343** While exploring a lab early in the comic, Rose comes across a four-eyed mutant kitten that she names Vodka Mutini ([[IHaveManyNames or just Mutie, later dubbed Meowgon Spengler by John]]). In the post-Scratch universe, Roxy Lalonde keeps a small herd of mutant cats that likewise have an extra pair of eyes in their forehead.
344** [[TokenEvilTeammate Vriska]] has [[ExoticEyeDesigns seven pupils]] in one of her eyes. However, herself stated that she considered them eyes when she was complaining about losing them [[EyeScream when her eye was destroyed]]. She latter gets them back though when she [[CameBackStrong Comes Back Strong]].

There are also azinarsi, who may have thousands of eyes littered all over their body, depending on how you'll interpret their... [[MechanicalLifeforms atypical]] anatomy.
349* ''Webcomic/LovelyLovecraft'': The shoggoth, adhering to the description of its kind in Lovecraftian canon.
350* The Carduchians in ''Webcomic/TheLydianOption'' have a set of tarantula-like eyes - including one partially blinded by Hudson in his first day in the prison.
351* ''Webcomic/{{Outsider}}'': The [[BigCreepyCrawlies insectoid appearance]] of the Umiak is enhanced by them having seven eyes, three main eyes on the sides and center of their heads and four ocelli on each "cheek". Even their [[FullConversionCyborg hardtroops]], whose forms sometimes greatly deviate from the standard Umiak body form, maintain this eye arrangement in their optics.
352* In ''Webcomic/PebbleAndWren'', two monsters have three eyes: Violet and the principal.
353* ''Webcomic/ThePetriDish'':
354** In one strip, Thaddeus makes little three-eyed creatures called "peeves".
355** One microbe Thaddeus meets while shrunken has several eyes and wants even more.
356* ''Webcomic/RubyQuest'' gives us the three-eyed [[spoiler:title character]] and a Lovecraftian version of [[spoiler:Tom Nook]]. Sure, the latter doesn't have eyes ''[[EyesDoNotBelongThere on his face]]''...
357* ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'': While having multiple eyes is not a medical concern for Sergeant Schlock's species ([[BizarreAlienBiology they grow them on trees]]), the chain of events that leads to him acquiring them reaches a quite unnerving climax in the emotional confusion of [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2005-09-25 this strip]]. [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-03-06 All sorts]] of [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-03-23 fun things]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-03-25 happen]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-11-08 to]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2007-03-19 these eyes]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2007-11-10 before]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2007-12-07 the]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2007-08-19 status quo]] [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2008-02-22 returns]]. And no, this is not StatusQuoIsGod - the acquisition of the two extra eyes and the losses of the same in two separate incidents are ''all'' associated with climactic awesomeness.
358* ''Webcomic/SleeplessDomain'': The monster that breaches the Inner Barrier in Chapter 8 is a massive, amorphous mass of body parts, with large red eyes covering [[EyesDoNotBelongThere most of its body]].
359* The ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'' side feature ''Webcomic/SuperStupor'' has a villain named "Eye-Sore" ... who [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust04222008.shtml used to be a hero]] named "Eye-Score" ... who, as the name suggests, has twenty eyes.
360* [[spoiler: Khudran]] in the scifi webcomic ''Webcomic/StarTrip'' is a shapeshifter whose forms have more than three eyes, sometimes becoming covered in eyes. This is even more prevalent when they appear in the main character Jas's dreams through a psychic connection, with their eyes springing up everywhere in the environment and focusing on her.
361* The Da'an from ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'', towering giants with eight eyes around the head.
362* ''Webcomic/{{Unsounded}}'':

364** Ilganyag's wings can sprout a sea of eyes, which can themselves shift in shape to look like vulvas.

367* In ''Webcomic/YokokasQuest'', Copycat has a (sort of) GameFace, where he occasionally reveals additional glowing, stylized eyes, [[EyesDoNotBelongThere which float around him]]. It isn't clear whether these eyes are tangible or functional.
368* The title character in ''Webcomic/ZebraGirl'' [[http://zebragirl.keenspot.com/d/20000804.html has three eyes.]]

375* [[http://my.opera.com/omershaikh/albums/showpic.dml?album=3932062&picture=58091272 This]] photoshop, combined with TooManyMouths.
376* ''Website/SCPFoundation'': Dr. Clef is described as having "one blue eye, one green eye, and one hazel eye." Where ''exactly'' the third eye is located on his body is never stated, so expect lots of fan art putting it just about anywhere (if not ignoring it).

380* ''WebVideo/CrossedLines'': In episode 7, Rebel Iron, we're introduced to Thunderball, a diesel engine who has three eyes.
381* In ''WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged'', we get this exchange in episode 6:
382-->'''Alucard''': "You have three eyes. You're a vampire."
383-->'''Seras''': "Do.. you have three eyes?"
384-->'''Alucard''': "Sweetheart, I've got ''so'' many eyes. Eyes for days."
385-->'''Seras''': "Eyes for days?"
386-->'''Alucard''': "Eyes for days."
387** And Episode 8 proves this to be NotHyperbole.
388* ''WebVideo/LifeAroundARedDwarf'': The Caudabranchiids have three eyes at the end of each of their two food-collecting appendages, while the Podilaminas have four eyes on top of their "heads". This becomes the norm for most subsequent lifeforms.
389* ''WebVideo/NightMind'''s host (and the creator's fursona) Nick Nocturne has this as part of their AnimalisticAbomination design. They have four heterochromatic eyes, alternating between green and purple.

394** "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS5E13DoPrincessesDreamOfMagicSheep Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?]]": A common trait among the Tantabus' monsters is the presence of excessive numbers of eyes -- the living cakes are given rings or clusters of eyes on every tier, while the living houses possess eyes where they previously had windows.

On the flip side, Chromastone, Ghostfreak, Feedback, Nanomech, Upgrade and Wildvine only have one (though Nanomech has four in ''Omniverse''), and Wildmutt [[EyelessFace doesn't have any]]. Max's old friend Xylene has three. [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] with the aptly-named Eye Guy, who has eyes everywhere on his body except his face.
402* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'':
403** ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'':
404*** Blackarachnia has four eyes in robot mode, as well as four in spider mode.
405*** Lugnut looks like a CyberCyclops, but those little things on the side of his head are extra eyes, so he technically has five.
406** [[TheMole Tarantulas]] from ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'', who had nine eyes in beast mode, but built-in SinisterShades in robot mode. BW Blackarachnia also had nine eyes in beast mode, but two in robot mode.
407** ''WesternAnimation/BeastMachines'' Blackarachnia had six eyes in robot mode, although she usually used kept the two pairs on her forehead shut.
408* Played for laughs in ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'', where a ghost cop asks a multi-eyed ghost if he had seen someone pass by, but he replies that everything happened so fast.
409** The multi-eyed ghost also happens to be Argus Hundred-Eyes mentioned above.
410* Parodied slightly in ''WesternAnimation/SwatKats'', with the initial villain Morbulous in "The Giant Bacteria" (Who later is mutated by [[SnakeTalk Dr. Viper]] into the monster of the episode title).
411-->'''Razor:''' This guy must have eyes in the back of his head!\
412''(Turbokat rolls over, hovering over the other jet "Top Gun" Style so Razor can look up and look at their opponent)''\
413'''Razor:''' He really DOES have eyes in the back of his head!\
414'''T-Bone:''' No excuses.

416* ''WesternAnimation/KipoAndTheAgeOfWonderbeasts'': Mandu a mutant pig has four eyes, which allows her to see in two seperate directions.
417* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'': In "The Chronicles of Meap", Meap's mother-in-law is an enormous slimy alien covered in eyes. Given that Meap is a much smaller and cuter alien, this raises some odd questions.
418* Played With in the episode "Chalkboard Bungle" of ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}''. At one point, the Warners keep goofing off whenever Miss Flamiel turns her head. She eventually tells them that she has eyes in the back of her head. "Really?" replies Yakko. "So do we." All three twist their bodies around to show that Dot and Yakko each have a pair of eyes on the back of their heads (meaning that they would have four eyes total), while Wakko has a whole mess of eyes. This is literal take on a classic idiom rather than a straight example as they normally have two eyes.
419* Bioborg Dr. Five Eyes from ''WesternAnimation/SkysurferStrikeForce'', he has, well [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin five eyes]].
420* ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'': [[spoiler: Kaia]] has a third eye that's hidden by [[spoiler: her bandana]].

425** Rose Quartz's and Pearl's fusion, Rainbow Quartz, has four eyes, each pair resembling those of her constituent Gems, although they display the emotions of the other Gem. This carries over to [[spoiler: Rainbow Quartz 2.0, the fusion of Pearl and Steven]].
426** Rhodonite and Fluorite are both fusions with extra eyes. Rhodonite has four eyes while Fluorite has six, though the latter usually keeps their lowest two [[EyesAlwaysShut closed]].
427* The ''WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends'' episode "Sight for Sore Eyes" revolves around an imaginary friend named [[PunnyName Ivan]], a pale-skinned creature with dozens of eyes where most have a head. He is used as a seeing-eye friend by his blind owner which can lead to some interesting connotations of some of the more practical uses of imaginary friends.
428* In ''WesternAnimation/WandaAndTheAlien'', Alien and his family all have four eyes.
429* ''WesternAnimation/BumpInTheNight'' had a pair of minor recurring antagonists named Sleemoth and Gloog, who were aliens that both literally had four eyes.
430* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' asks a SeaMonster in a cave how to tie his shoes. The sea monster is shown to have a large cluster of eyes, and responds by eating him. Apparently, it ate a fisherman, too.
431* In the 2018 reboot of ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'', [[spoiler:Horde Prime]] has four eyes, three of which are on the right side of his face. The extra eyes gaze in different directions.

432* ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'': Tom, Star's demon ex-boyfriend, has a third eye in the middle of his forehead. Several of the demons on his mother's side of the family have the same, but not all of them. It should be noted that this isn't a ThirdEye; there is no sign that it gives him any extra perception.
433-->'''Tom:''' I'm all ears. Well, technically I'm mostly eyes, but...
434* ''WesternAnimation/{{King}}'': The Krenits in "Slow Plums And Krenits" have eyes all over their heads.
435* Parodied with Captain Two-Eyed Alonso in ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPussInBoots'' who, as his name suggests, has two eyes -- a right eye and a central eye. His left eye is covered by a patch.
436* Emma from ''WesternAnimation/FourEyes'' literally has four eyes in her true alien form and is figuratively four-eyed in her NerdGlasses-wearing human form.

447* Experimentation on fruit flies has shown that there is a master gene ''ey'' for creating eye; a scientist can insert the ''ey'' gene at random places and create mutants with eyes sticking out of the abdomen or the legs.
448* Many species of giant clam have multiple eyes lining the outside of their shells.
449* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teratoma Teratomas]]. These are (usually, though not always) benign tumors that can appear anywhere in the body, and may feature a hodgepodge of different body parts, including eyes, hair, and teeth.
450* The pineal gland of mammalians is often called the "third eye". Not without justification, as in evolution history it ''was'' an eye, and still regulates light-dark rhythms.
451* The Tuatara is a lizard-like reptile that have a third eye on their heads, though covered in scales in adults. Current evidence suggests that their evolutionary ancestors had a fully functional third eye. Modern specimens show that the eye is fully formed but the connection to the brain is not properly developed.
452* The tail on a peacock is supposed to mimic this effect. It's used both to impress peahens and scare away predators and rival males.
453* Starfish can have anywhere from 5 to 50 eyes, 1 on each arm tip, depending on the species and how many arms they have.
