No matter how thick the hide, hard the chitin, or magically impervious the body, the eyes are a natural weak spot for any creature that has them.

 

{{examples}}

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==

* Near the beginning of ''[[Ninja Scroll]]'', Jubei confronts Tessai, a bad guy with the ability to harden his body like stone. Jubei casually mentions that he can't be invulnerable ''everywhere'', right before throwing a needle into his eye.

* In ''[[Elf Quest]]'', this was the way they killed Madcoil.

 

* In ''[[Tiberium Wars]]'', the [[Power Armor]]-wearing Black Hand soldiers are [[Immune to Bullets]], except for their optics. The [[Humongous Mecha|Avatars]] have a similar weakness.

 

* What the human snipers does exactly against several Decepticons in ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon]]'' during the climatic battle in Chicago, allowing [[Badass Army|NEST]] to take down a couple of them without Autobot aid.

** It's not just the Decepticon mooks that fall victim to this. [[Trope Namer|Star]][[The Starscream|scream]] is killed by having his eyes taken out and a grenade dropped inside his head through one of his now-empty eyesockets.
