A sense organ that detects light. An eye can be a simple organ that detects only light and shadow, or a complex organ that detects shape, color, brightness, and distance. See Visual Basics for more information about eyes and vision. See Anatomy of a Single-Lens Eye and Anatomy of a Compound Eye for details about the parts that make up these eye types.

Insects (like butterflies and moths) have compound eyes and simple eyes. Compound eyes are made up of many hexagonal lens/corneas which focus light from each part of the insect's field of view onto a rhabdome (the equivalent of our retina). An optic nerve then carries this information to the insect's brain. Insects see very differently from us; they can see ultraviolet rays (which are invisible to us).

The center of a hurricane, usually not found in tropical storms. The eye is usually calm and sometimes cloudless.
The low pressure center of a tropical cyclone. Winds are normally calm and sometimes the sky clears.
The eye of the hurricane is the innermost portion of the storm. This zone is surprisingly calm with little or no wind. Within the eye, the skies are often clear, despite the fact that winds and clouds continue to rage around the edge of the eye. The eye is not always in the centre of the storm. Sometimes it turns or moves in various directions with the storm itself, which continues to move forward on its own course. Over the ocean the sea can be treacherous under the eye because high waves are converging. Show Picture
To dream of seeing an eye warns that watchful enemies are seeking the slightest chance to work injury to your business. This dream indicates to a lover, that a rival will usurp him if he is not careful. To dream of brown eyes denotes deceit and perfidy. Blue eyes signify weakness in carrying out any intention, gray eyes indicate a love of flattery for the owner. If you dreamed of losing an eye, or that of eyes have some pain etc. it denotes trouble.

In meteorology, usually the "eye of the storm" ( hurricane, typhoon), that is, the roughly circular area of comparatively light winds found at the center of a severe tropical cyclone and surrounded by the eyewall. The winds increase gradually outward from the center but can remain very light up to the inner edge of the eyewall. No rain occurs and in intense tropical cyclones the eye is clear with blue sky overhead. Most, but not all, tropical cyclones with maximum winds in excess of 40 m s−1(78 knots) have eyes visible on satellite imagery. Eye diameters vary from 10 to more than 100 km.

Shark's eyes vary in shape and size among the different species. Also, only Carchariniformes sharks have a nictitating membrane. Sharks have keen vision and can see very well, even in dim light (using the tapetum lucidum). Shark eyes have a spherical lens.

The center of a tropical storm or hurricane, characterized by a roughly circular area of light winds and rain-free skies. An eye will usually develop when the maximum sustained wind speeds exceed 78 mph. It can range in size from as small as 5 miles to up to 60 miles, but the average size is 20 miles. In general, when the eye begins to shrink in size, the storm is intensifying.
An eye is an organ of vision that detects light. Different kinds of light-sensitive organs are found in a variety of organisms. The simplest eyes do nothing but detect whether the surroundings are light or dark, while more complex eyes can distinguish shapes and colors.
Eye was a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elected two Members of Parliament (MPs) by the first past the post system of election. The Reform Act 1832 reduced its representation to one MP.
The eye is a region of mostly calm weather found at the center of strong tropical cyclones. The eye of a storm is usually circular and typically 25–40 miles (40–65 km) in diameter. It is surrounded by the eyewall, where the most severe weather of a cyclone occurs.
"Eye" is a song by the band The Smashing Pumpkins, which featured on the soundtrack of the David Lynch film Lost Highway. Along with the song "The End is the Beginning is the End" from Batman and Robin, "Eye" represented a period of work on soundtracks done by the Pumpkins done in between the release of the two albums Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and Adore. It also appeared on their greatest hits collection Rotten Apples.
