Glass Eyes are effectively a slightly more technologically advanced version of the eyepatch but without some of the pirate overtones. So they often get the overtones of the Eyepatch of Power. This particularly happens if the glass eye is designed to not match the other eye. However, another common use of the Glass Eye is for comedy. The eye ends up being ill-fitting, constantly rolls around in the head, perhaps falls out and rolls around on the floor, leading to some slapstick runaround. A common variation for comedy purposes is to make the eyes wooden. It's just inherently funnier somehow, though you might get the common courtesy of a joke where the wooden eye is going along with a pirate's wooden legs and wooden arms and wooden... other bits. Mention must also go to the common joke format of Ignore the Disability, where people take great pains to try to not stare at the deformity. See also Electronic Eyes for when the concept gets a futuristic upgrade with some more exotic connotations. |

Tripping Over You has Alfons, though it hasn't been explained how he lost his right eye (it's implied it had something to do with his sister running around with scissors in her hand). Alfons has a collection of variously colored glass eyes which he wears alternately, a fact that fascinates his kid cousin Liam to no end. After getting lost in a bar for a couple days, Alfons shows up again and the glass eye is missing, though his report of what he did the past days suspiciously avoids any mention of what happened to it. | |

Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody's magical eye from Harry Potter adds an aura of mystique around the veteran dark wizard hunter. His eye also has some particularly creepy abilities such as being able to see through things and turn around in its socket to see through his head in any direction, as befits his ever-watchful, ever-paranoid personality. After his death, Dolores Umbridge steals the eye and mounts it on her office door so she can keep watch over her employees. | |

Discworld A very creepy version is Mr. Teatime from Hogfather. He has a grey (black in the Film of the Book) glass eye that may actually be a crystal ball. As the author makes clear, though, it's Teatime's real eye that is the scarier, with its pinhole-sized pupil. It is very briefly mentioned in Men at Arms that Lance-Constable Cuddy has a glass eye. It's been speculated that this is a subtle Shout-Out to Columbo. |

Captain Marvel (2019) finally shows how Fury lost his eye, and in the end, Coulson presents him with a selection of glass eyes as a replacement. Given that all his other appearances show him with his trademark Eyepatch of Power, he apparently chose to forego using one. Which makes sense as Captain America: The Winter Soldier shows He still has the blinded eye under the patch to use as a backup secondary retinal scan |

In Gangs of New York, Bill "The Butcher" Cutting put out his eye because it offended him when he lost to Priest Vallon in a street fight in early 19th-century New York City. He replaced it with a glass eye... with an American Eagle for an iris. He taps it with his steak knife to emphasize a point. Daniel Day-Lewis did the scene without blinking. | |

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe has Frank Bennett have one glass eye, which he got after a bullet destroyed the real one. He likes to use it as a form of a joke by telling a stranger to guess which of his eyes is false and buy them a drink if they guess correctly. Most people can't tell the difference. One old man got it right and the bartender asked how he could tell, with the old man stating that the glass eye was the one that seemed to have even a shred of human compassion in it. | |

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey has the Cyclops, who gets his name because he's missing an eye, which he replaced with a very expensive obsidian eye that he's extremely proud of. After the Eagle Bearer gets a hold of it, they force it up the backside of a goat just to piss him off. After the boss battle, killing the goats in the area will cause one of them (determined randomly) to drop it, at which point it can be sold for a pretty good amount of money. | |

Captain Ron from the movie Captain Ron has a glass eye, but he won it in a poker game and it doesn't fit properly, so he usually has it covered with an eyepatch to hold it in. Later in the movie, during a festival, he tries to remove the eyepatch to blend in, but then his eye spontaneously pops out and bounces away. After searching around for a while, he gives up and puts the eyepatch back on. Since it's Kurt Russell playing this character, it could be a comedic Shout-Out to his more famous character, Snake Plissken. | |

In Descendants of Darkness, Muraki's right eye is often drawn slightly wider than his left, adding to his unsettling appearance. No explanation is offered in the anime (aside from the fact that it glows with a weird blue or violet light when he's summoning familiars/casting curses/generally being freakish and supernatural), but in the manga, during a confrontation with Tsuzuki, it falls out, revealing it to be a glass eye. | |

Once during the run of The Brady Bunch, Barry Williams (Greg) told the other Brady kid actors he had a glass eye. When he was called on it, he borrowed one from an optometrist friend of his father and used that to freak out Eve Plumb (Jan). | |

Ragetti in Pirates of the Caribbean has a wooden eye that has a tendency to fall out a lot and/or "splinter something fierce" especially when he rubs it. He wants to spend his share of the treasure to buy a glass one that fits. In At World's End, it turns out to be one of the Pieces of Eight needed to free Calypso. He switches to a proper Eyepatch of Power after that. | |

Wednesday from American Gods has one. The eye itself doesn't play an overly significant role in the plot (though it plays a role) but it's one of the clues to Wednesday's real identity. Well, more the fact that he would actually need one, but still... It might also serve as an indicator that even he is changed by America, given that Iceland's Odin favors an Eyepatch of Power. | |

An example of an attractive character with one — in Valvrave the Liberator, A-drei (A3), a handsome deposed Warrior Prince, gets his eye shot out in the second episode. Later, he comes back with a replacement, which matches his other eye in color, except it isn't drawn with as much detail. The eye and the scar around it are often seen, even though they're under his bangs. It doesn't take away at all from his beauty. | |

In the Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode "The Glass Eye", adapted from a short story by John Keir Cross, a lifelong spinster holds onto a glass eye as a keepsake. She acquired it when she met briefly with a ventriloquist she'd fallen in love with. He actually had two glass eyes because he wasn't the ventriloquist but the dummy, and the "dummy" was a little person throwing his voice. | |
