History EyeBeams / WesternAnimation

* Parodied in ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents''. When Timmy wishes for his parents to have super powers, his mother gets Heat Vision, while his father gets ''Meat'' Vision, the ability to shoot meat with his eyes. Timmy himself has heat vision courtesy of a prior wish, but [[IdiotHero forgets it most of the time]].
* The power of the Pig Talisman in ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' is the ability to shoot heat beams from the user's eyes. In one episode, Jade notes that it's hard to accurately see when you're shooting beams from your eyes. In another, a character gets the talisman and accidentally [[BlindWithoutEm destroys his prescription sunglasses]]. HilarityEnsues.

* In the short-lived ''WesternAnimation/RoadRovers'', one character, Exile, had both heat vision ''and'' freeze vision. One episode even showed him with night-vision.
* ''WesternAnimation/KryptoTheSuperdog'': Like Superman himself, Krypto can use heat vision too.

* The FlyingDutchman of WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants has these, though he only uses them on Squidward in "Shanghaied".
** Barnacle Boy also has a variant he calls "sulfur vision." In "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II," he attempts to use it to destroy a conch shell but is unable to make the beam travel more than a few inches from his face.

---> '''Oglethorpe:''' You prance around like you have laser eyes!

-->'''Martian Queen''': I never knew you could shoot laser beams from your eyes!
-->'''Dodgers''': Well, there's a lot you don't know abou- ''laser whats out of my where?!''

* [[MadeOfExplodium Combustion Man]] from ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' doesn't quite perfectly fit this trope, but he fires his beams o' doom out of an eye tattoo over his sixth chakra, located close to the eyes.

* Mighty Ray from ''{{WesternAnimation/Hero 108}}'' has magical eyes that can shoot electrical beams upon taking a [[PowerupFood banana]].
* ''WesternAnimation/StaticShock'', whenever Static discharges powerful enough electricity, he could shoot electric streams from his eyes, but it's only a side effect that he doesn't use to full effect, and just a visual cue showing just how much power/how pissed he is at the moment.

-->'''Martian Queen''': I never knew you could shoot lasers from your eyes!
-->'''Dodgers''': I can do what now?

* [[WesternAnimation/TheGodzillaPowerHour Hanna-Barbera's version of Godzilla]] has eye lasers, in addition to his usual abilities. Probably because laser beams are easy to animate, but also because ExecutiveMeddling requested that Godzilla use his BreathWeapon too much, because they thought it would influence kids to commit arson (yes, really!).

* This is the form ComicBook/GhostRider's infamous Penance Stare takes in the classic ''WesternAnimation/FantasticFour'' episode when they fight Galactus.

* [[Characters/StevenUniverseWhiteDiamond White Diamond]] from ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' is able to shoot white rays of light from her eyes. When a gem is hit by these beams, it bleaches their bodies black and white and assimilates them as extensions of herself and makes them "perfect" (by her standards, anyway). Even these extensions of herself are able to do this, with White Diamond launching a full assault on [[spoiler:Pink Steven]] using [[Characters/StevenUniverseYellowDiamond Yellow Diamond]], [[Characters/StevenUniverseBlueDiamond Blue Diamond]], her Pearl (formerly Pink Diamond's Pearl), [[Characters/StevenUniverseGarnet Garnet]], [[Characters/StevenUniverseAmethyst Amethyst]] and [[Characters/StevenUniversePearl Pearl]] all at once.

* Ben from ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}'' can transform into an alien named Eye Guy, who has laser eyes... just [[EyesDoNotBelongThere not on his head]].

** Octavia, the mutant, multi-legged cow from the short, "Mabel's Scrapbook: Petting Zoo", does this so it can eat a freshly roasted hawk. [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs This…this show is weird, I know.]]

* In the ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode "Mecha-Streisand" Leonard Maltin has this as his superpower, he can use it even when he's not Mecha-Maltin.

* Rather inexplicably, the ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' version of physicist Stephen Hawking can shoot lasers from his eyes. Even he was surprised.

* On ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'', in a monster movie Jimmy and Heloise watch.

* [[WesternAnimation/TheGodzillaPowerHour Hanna-Barbera's version of Godzilla]] has eye lasers, in addition to his usual abilities. Probably because laser beams are easy to animate.

*** Frequently this power is given various names in Powerpuff fanfiction - laser eyes, eye lasers (which makes more sense), eyebeams, or optic blasts (if trying to sound fancy)
