* EyeScream/RealLife

* In ''Art/{{Gassed}}'', the injuries are not shown directly: all of the soldiers depicted in the painting are blind from a mustard gas attack, their eyes wrapped in bandages. The soldiers on their feet need to be guided by orderlies.

Usually accompanied with ReflectiveEyes, so we can get a nice and nasty glimpse of the incoming foreign object. A SuperTrope to ArmedWithPepperSpray. See also GoForTheEye (which encourages this trope), AHandfulForAnEye, MoeGreeneSpecial, ForcedToWatch, and EyePoke. Likewise, a GroinAttack can invoke the same primal reaction. Compare {{Fingore}}, AgonyOfTheFeet and EarAche. Contrast EyesAreUnbreakable. If the character survives, it often results in an EyepatchOfPower (or an EyelessFace if it happened to ''both'' eyes).

In RealLife, this will usually kill you unless you can get immediate medical attention, due to blood loss and shock.

** [[https://scryfall.com/card/ice/128/gaze-of-pain Gaze of Pain]] depicts a person whose eyelids have been slit open vertically..

* This even occurs in ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering''. While not shown on the actual card, the flavor text for [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=135219 Distress]] has some horrifying connotations;
-->"They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. I like to break windows and take what's inside."
** And if you thought that was bad, just check out the new art/flavor text tag team of the ''2012 Core Set'' [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=236908 reprint of the same]] (emphasis added):

** Just look at the art on [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=2452 Gaze of Pain]] closely.
** Try [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Deathmark Deathmark]] if you search the site, they even have a wallpaper version of the art.
** [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=378439 Eye Gouge]], appropriately enough, features a spear thrown right into a cyclops' eye. The card's effect is humorous: Slightly debilitating to most creatures...fatal to Cyclops.

* In Creator/SegaPinball's ''Pinball/GoldenEye'', completing the "Xenia Encounter" has the villainess crush a Naval Captain until his eyes pop out of their sockets.
* The Kracko BossBattle in ''VideoGame/KirbysPinballLand'' starts with him as a sole eyeball for Kirby to hit.
* One of the captive balls in ''Pinball/DemolitionMan'' is an eyeball, and hitting it awards the Retina Value

* Happens in the ''Podcast/CoolKidsTable'' game ''Homeward Bound 4''. Josh gets shot in the eye by a human, but fortunately it's just a flesh wound to him and he can barely see anything to begin with.

** EyeScream/SpongeBobSquarePants

The eyes are our window to the world. We rely mostly on our sight to tell us about the world -- its wonders, its dangers, and its beauty (unless you're blind). At the same time, our eyes are mostly made of water and nerve tissue. Which means that most direct attacks on the eyes, especially with a sharp, pointy object, will destroy them.
