The word ”eye” is used several different ways in English

The word eye is used in several different expressions in the English language. Let’s quickly review a few of them. The first definition of the word eye has to do with the organ of your body that you use to see things with. In English, when someone has perfect eyesight, it is called "20/20 vision."

Naturally, eyes come in several different colors: in English they are described as brown, blue, green, hazel, grey, blue-grey, bluish-greenish, or just simply "dark." Example:

"She has really big, hazel eyes, and a very expressive face. She is beautiful."

Eye For
When someone has an "eye for ..." this means that they either have a talent or skill for something or are able to spot, see or notice it. Example:"She really has an eye for painting, look at the detail in her artwork."
