* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4334542/8/The-Grass-Is-Always-Greener The Grass Is Always Greener]]'', Theo has Daphne at wandpoint.

* In ''Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheSomethingSomething'' when a ParodySue appears in Voldemort's lair offering him a shot at redemption Voldemort is entranced by her pretty eyes... the Sue ends up dead like all the others who keep showing up on Voldemort's doorstep but Voldemort kept her pretty eyes to play with.

She only avoids FacialHorror and dying only because of her younger brother's Healing Spit power.

* ''Fanfic/MyHeroAcademiaUnchainedPredator'': This is an expected given when the Slayer [[KillEmAll gets to work on enemy combatants]].

* Another fic had that Snape was once again found to be a spy and tortured. When he returns to Hogwarts it is immediately apparent that one of his eyes can't not be salvaged. However, there is a slim hope that the other can. Well, that hope was for naught because when the bandage is removed from the remaining eye, the eye leaves the socket, slides down Snape's cheek and either falls into his lap or onto the fall. In other words, the bandage was the only thing keeping the eye in place. (If I recalled the name of the fic, I would put the name here, but I can't.)

* In the ''Franchise/MassEffect'' fanfic ''Fanfic/TheCouncilEra'', a batarian commander (whose species possesses two pairs of eyes, one above the other, for the record) serving under the VillainProtagonist is described as only having two working eyes. This was explained on his article page at the Mass Effect Fanon wikia. During his service for the Hegemony's military, Nikhail (the batarian) was taken prisoner by guerrilla soldiers, and when he steadfastly refused to give information for three months, they resolved to execute him before he could be freed by the Hegemony. He was in fact rescued, but not before his eyes had been stabbed out with a hot poker.

Sougo's solution is to therefore rip the Flower out of her with his magically-enhanced barehand, stems and all, with the process being just as painful as it sounds, with Zero actually blacking out after it is done. When she wakes up later, she discovers that Sougo [[PetTheDog restored her missing eye back to normal.]]

* Fanfic/LeftBeyond'': Tsion is tied up, fitted with VR goggles that give him an external view of his prison cell, and treated to industrial drills being brought to his eye level and starting to go through the goggles. He thinks that this is a form of interrogation, and does not crack, while in fact the Omega are simply recording his biological fear reactions to see if he has any [[spoiler: since he has a regenerating "glorified" body and would eventually grow his eyes back]].

* In [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6938558/4/Made-Again chapter 4]] of the ''Literature/MaximumRide'' fanfic ''Made Again,'' the whitecoats inject Novocain ''directly into Iggy's open eyes'' before they experiment on them for hours.

[[AC:Unsorted]]

* ''Fanfic/LeftBeyond'': Tsion is tied up, fitted with VR goggles that give him an external view of his prison cell, and treated to industrial drills being brought to his eye level and starting to go through the goggles. He thinks that this is a form of interrogation, and does not crack, while in fact the Omega are simply recording his biological fear reactions to see if he has any [spoiler: since he has a regenerating "glorified" body and would eventually grow his eyes back].

[[AC:''Franchise/StarWars'']]
* In ''Fanfic/PatronOfTheArtOfWar'', Thrawn makes a very clear threat of this when Sabine doesn’t make the painting he wants, instead made something else in defiance, and has a droid come very close to removing her eyes. He stops it before it can actually happen, but it is clear that he will follow through next time. [[BreakTheCutie Sabine ends up complying to his demand]].

* In the ''Fanfic/TamersForeverSeries'', [[spoiler: Matt narrowly avoids having his eyes cut open by a [=DarkScubamon=]]].

* This trope is why [[spoiler:The Builder always wears sunglasses]] in ''Fanfic/TheRacketRotterChronicles''. [[spoiler:It's to hide that they have no eyes at all.]]

* In ''Fanfic/TalesOfAResetMind'', [[spoiler:Mania does this to Nico. With her ''hands''. He survives, but is blinded.]]

* "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/38530060/ Avengers: Darkness in Kingdom Hearts]]" features a comparatively low-key example of this; after Kaa (''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'') hypnotises and nearly eats [[ComicBook/ScarletWitch Wanda Maximoff]] and [[ComicBook/SpiderMan Peter Parker]], Wanda retaliates by using her powers to literally seal Kaa's eyelids together, leaving him blind (although she notes that such a hex will only last for a few hours before he returns to normal).

* In one of the fanfics in the ''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/ThreeDoctorsNineCompanionsWhatCouldGoWrong 3 Doctors, 9 Companions, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]]'' series, a character is sprayed in the face with an acidic substance and has to undergo an emercency eye removal surgery, performed by a character with ''no'' surgical experience. It's... a lot.
* In ''Series/DoctorWho'' fanfic ''Fanfic/TheEyeOpens'', a cult appears built around an EldritchAbomination that manifests as a giant eye. Joining the Cult involves having your eyes plucked out, which is demonstrated [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10793350/2/The-Eye-Opens here]], in the second chapter.

* The major [[WhamEpisode wham moment]] of the ''Franchise/DragonAge'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/AccursedOnes'' is when the main character wakes up one morning to find that his lover's father has cut the eyes out of his son's head and made off with them, in a gruesome bid to rebuild his Frankenstein's Bride. Subsequent revelations make it even worse: not only was Amell [[AndIMustScream awake the entire time,]] but his father used blood magic to mind-control ''his own lover'' into wielding the knife.

* ''Like Shadows on the Winter Sky'' by Resmiranda: In [[http://www.schnoogle.com/restrictedsection/fic.php?fic=sch:/authors/resmiranda/LSOWS03.html chapter 3]] you find out that Snape is getting tortured after being found out to be a spy, but the reader is left unsure as to how. Then [[http://www.schnoogle.com/restrictedsection/fic.php?fic=sch:/authors/resmiranda/LSOWS05.html chapter 5]] comes along, in which the reader is told exactly how his torture proceeded. Voldemort took the knife mentioned at the end of chapter 3 and plugged it into his eye sockets to remove his eyes. After that is done, Voldemort makes sure that Snape can never be fitted for a prosthesis by placing his wand into the sockets and firing off a curse that completely damages the nerves that runs from the socket all the way to the occipital lobes in the brain. At the end of the chapter, Snape is back at Hogwarts, confined to his rooms. While there, he decides that it will be a good idea to plunge his own fingers into his bloody sockets and use said blood to write morbid poetry on the wall.
* Another fic had that Snape was once again found to be a spy and tortured. When he returns to Hogwarts it is immediately apparent that one of his eyes can't not be salvaged. However, there is a slim hope that the other can. Well, that hope was for naught because when the bandage is removed from the remaining eye, the eye leaves the socket, slides down Snape's cheek and either falls into his lap or onto the fall. In other words, the bandage was the only thing keeping the eye in place. (If I recalled the name of the fic, I would put the name here, but I can't.)

[[AC: ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'']]
* A ''[[Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers Hetalia]]'' doujinshi featuring the sweden/Denmark pairing portrayed Denmark as quite the insane {{Yandere}} for Sweden, and one of his first crazy actions was using his axe to injure Sweden's eyes when he merely insinuated that he may take off and leave the Nordic group. Sweden managed to escape the worse part of his ire, but still had some damage to his eyes; in the next scene, he's seen using glasses.
* The villain of ''Awakening'', a ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' fan fiction, is real-life Nazi doctor UsefulNotes/JosefMengele, whose many twisted interests included trying to change people's eye color with dye injections. The scene depicting such a surgery made even the author cringe while she was writing it.

[[AC: ''Franchise/{{Highlander}}'']]
* In [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2405068/1/Seeing-It-Through Seeing it Through]] Methos’ eyes are destroyed with a hot poker by a vengeful immortal.

"A Night with Friends" reveals that [[spoiler: Cole lost it because she got into a fight with her [[AbusiveParents abusive father]], and during it, he took a knife and attacked her face with it]]. At one point, Alya attempts to inflict this on Marinette by going after her with deliberately sharpened fingernails, but [[spoiler:rips open some of Cole's stitches instead]].

[[AC:''Series/The100'']]
* In ''Fanfic/LightningOnlyStrikesOnce'', Finn is struck in the face with a sword that destroys both his eyes, with Clarke only just able to treat the injuries so that he will survive and soon forced to acknowledge that they couldn't have saved his vision even if they were on the Ark.

[[AC: ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'']]

* ''Fanfic/BetweenTheLinesMrQuestionMark'': [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10979729/41/Between-The-Lines Chapter 41: The Silent Screams]]:
** Author's note:
--> If at any point, you covered your eyes while looking at this, turned away, felt 'I really want to skip this bit' or just yelled "WHAT THE HELL!? HIS EYE?!"

[[spoiler:'She' sank 'her' teeth into the boy's left eye.]]

[[AC:''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerTiberiumWars'']]
* In ''Fanfic/TiberiumWars'', a Nod soldier is hit by shrapnel in her eyes from a grenade, ruining both her eyes and her face. This becomes a minor plot point later on when the Nod commander, Rawne, opts to give her advanced cybernetic eye replacements and transfers her to his personal command.

[[AC:{{Crossover}}]]

* In ''Blog/ThePredespairKids,'' Kyoji ends up inflicting this ''on himself'' during [[spoiler: the Fall of Hope's Peak.

* In ''Fanfic/HellsisterTrilogy'', [[EnemyWithout Satan Girl]] tries to gouge ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'s eyes out in their final fight.
-->Kara drew on her every erg of reserve power to keep fighting. But, increasingly, she found herself on the defensive. She fought to keep Satan Girl's fingers from her eyes, her jaws from her carotid artery, her knees from her crotch.

* The dark BL ''Manga/DeathNote'' fanfic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3813281/1/Poison_Apple Poison Apple]]'' provides an example of this trope when [[spoiler:Light]] gouges his own eye out with a piece of shattered mirror.

* In one of the fanfics in the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/ThreeDoctorsNineCompanionsWhatCouldGoWrong 3 Doctors, 9 Companions, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]] series, a character is sprayed in the face with an acidic substance and has to undergo an emercency eye removal surgery, performed by a character with ''no'' surgical experience. It's... a lot.

* In Ash the Wanderer's fanfiction "Atrocities," original character Erik tells the Son brothers of replacing his love interest's eyes with those of a mad scientist using a machine the scientist created after her own eyes were destroyed in an explosion. Not quite as squicky as it could be, but the gore in the rest of the fic more than makes up for that.

* A ''Manga/FairyTail'' [[http://mrshoneydew.deviantart.com/art/What-Chapter-372-of-Fairy-Tail-Should-Have-Been-524338116 fan]][[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10791036/1/What-Chapter-372-of-Fairy-Tail-should-have-been fiction]] featuring [[RonTheDeathEater Erza]] [[ColdBloodedTorture torturing]] Kyouka as [[PayEvilUntoEvil payback]] for the torture that Kyouka put Erza herself through in the actual series. Erza... gives that torture a rousing finale to say the least. As she rips out Kyouka's eyes. Gruesomely. And then squashes them both under her boot heel.

* ''FanFic/ABrighterDark'': In this ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'' dramatic retelling, Takumi shoots out Corrin's eye during the battle for Fort Dragonfall.

* A minor example in ''Fanfic/TheBlacksmithsApprentice'', as Snotlout receives a serious scar over his left eye [[spoiler:during a duel with Hiccup]], although all observers can see that Snotlout is only 'blinded' because of the blood from the scar and he can still see through the eye as normal. On a more serious note, [[spoiler:the Red Death loses several eyes to Nadder spines and direct flames at its eyes during the final battle with the corrupt Queen]].

[[AC: ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'']]
* In ''Fanfic/QueenOfAllOni'', [[spoiler: Jade]] has a moment of this, after being captured by the SmugSnake / SquishyWizard Lung -- [[spoiler: he traps her astral form, contained in a body of shadows, in a glass sphere and gives her the "tanning session from Hell", using industrial-strength lights to [[ColdBloodedTorture torture]] her until she submits, at one point MELTING HER EYELIDS! After he's KilledOffForReal when she is rescued, she recovers somewhat, but her eyelids are now transparent, forcing her to wear a blindfold to give her some darkness when she blinks]].
* ''Fanfic/QueenOfShadows'': During the Battle of Awaji, Himitsu is at one point seen casting a spell that causes a couple of the Gani to have their eyes burn out of their skulls.

* ''Fanfic/FromPorcelainToIvoryToSteel''

** [[spoiler: Nui]] loses an eye after repeated strikes to it during the Naturals Election, [[spoiler: thus matching her canon appearance]].

[[AC: ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'']]
* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12785530/1/Every-Step-of-the-Way Every Step Of The Way]]'', Shota Aizawa is kidnapped by a villain with a quirk that lets him burn things with his touch. The guy wants information and when Aizawa won’t talk, he uses that ability to literally ''burn Aizawa’s eyes out''. He does it right through the blindfold he’s using to counteract Aizawa’s erasure quirk. Aizawa is left permanently blind because it’s way beyond anything Recovery Girl can fix, though oddly he learns he can see light and shapes at the price of eye and head pain if he activates his quirk.

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/14265771 With Eyes Closed]]'' has a villain gouge both Aizawa’s eyes out. It’s rather creepy reading Hizashi realizing the red cloth over them isn’t a red blindfold but a piece of Aizawa’s capture scarf soaked with blood. Then Aizawa yells “THEY TOOK THEM HIZASHI!!”.
** ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/29237376/chapters/71791098 Pay No Mind (What Other Voices Say]]'' has Aizawa captured by Overhaul and mentally and physically tortured, including Overhaul cutting his eyes out and blinding him for a time before restoring them with his quirk.

** [[spoiler: When his sword breaks, some of the metal fragments strike Night Blade in one eye, blinding it. Fortunately, it heals up thanks to the intervention of the Questioning Order.]]

* ''Fanfic/TheImmortalGame'': [[TheDragon General]] [[TheSociopath Esteem]] inflicts this on Twilight Sparkle by ramming an ArtifactOfDoom called the "Sliver of Darkness" into her eyeball, allowing a demon sealed within it to [[DemonicPossession possess her]]. Much later, after regaining her body, she [[spoiler: [[KarmicDeath repays the favor]] by driving an even larger metal shard into Esteem's eye, through his brain, and out the back of his skull after he [[BlatantLies boasts]] about how he tortured, killed, and [[ImAHumanitarian ate]] Spike[[note]]though this turns out to be a final, spiteful lie[[/note]].]]
* Twilight also loses an eye in ''Mirrors'', the sequel to ''Prince Charming'', when [[spoiler: Pinkie Pie's vengeful ghost carves it out with a knife.]]
* In ''Fanfic/PagesOfHarmony'', Twilight inflicts this on [[spoiler: Sweetie Belle]] by [[spoiler: pressing a red metal plate to one of her eyes while [[ForcedToWatch Rarity watches in horror]]]]. She later does the same procedures on [[spoiler: Fluttershy]], though for the latter it's [[spoiler: merely the first step in an alphabetical procedure to take Kindness]].
* ''[[Fanfic/TheNuptialverse Families]]'': Twilight inflicts this on [[spoiler: Garble]] in retaliation for [[spoiler: [[MamaBear Garble threatening Spike]]]], by ''stabbing him in the eye with a burning stick''.

* Used several times in [[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/219016/zombons Zombons]], most notably when Apple Bloom's eyes are eaten by zombie!Silver Spoon. [[CrossesTheLineTwice With a spoon.]]
* ''Fanfic/HeirOfTheNightmare'': Fluttershy uses [[DeathGlare The Stare]] on Nightmare Moon. It almost works, but Nightmare is able to break away from it and knock Fluttershy out cold. The madmare's solution for getting rid of it? ''Severing Fluttershy's optic nerves''.

* ''Fanfic/{{Adjacency}}'': Implied near the end of [[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/144314/5/adjacency/chapter-5-scattered "Scattered"]], when Trixie is being blamed for an AlternateSelf's actions:

Less brutal than it seems, as said character [[spoiler:had been born blind and only recently received eyes]]; still gory, however.

* The protagonist of [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4516671/1/Be_careful_what_you_wish_for Be careful what you wish for]] winds up taking a knife to the eye. He later on is caught performing a self-inspection to check its condition. This is played for laughs, really.
** In the sequel, [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4678433/1/A_careless_wish A careless wish]] former protagonist's successor fights something big, purple, and mean. The words 'Ocular Fluid' are used, and cover one of the character's hands. NOT played for laughs this time.

* The ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' fanficiton ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13277250/1/How-Salem-should-have-dealt-with-Tyrian How Salem Should Have Dealt With Tyrian]]'' had Roman Torchwick gouging Tyrian's eyes out.
* In ''Fanfic/ReverseRWBY'', Cinder shoots Ruby in one of her eyes after Ruby kills Mercury.

* "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/38530060/ Avengers: Darkness in Kingdom Hearts]]" features a comparatively low-key example of this; after Kaa (''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'') hypnotises and nearly eats [[Characters/ScarletWitch Wanda Maximoff]] and [[Franchise/SpiderMan Peter Parker]], Wanda retaliates by using her powers to literally seal Kaa's eyelids together, leaving him blind (although she notes that such a hex will only last for a few hours before he returns to normal).
