54 Eyes That Stare

From Macabre Intercoms to Edible Eyeballs

— July 14, 2009 — Unique
Eyes, no matter what shape or form, always seem to be staring at you. The eyes in this cluster come in many different guises, and show how the simple vision of looking can easily be turned into something fashionable, or disturbing.

From emotional blinding to long lower lashes, this cluster is full of eyes.

Implications - The eyes are often referred to as the windows to the soul, and are perhaps the most prominent part of the human face. Thus, they are a point of focus for many products, resulting in endless innovations in eye makeup, glasses, and sunglasses. Companies in the fashion or cosmetics industry can capitalize on the importance of eyes.
