Eyeballs!

Eye Plaques appear in the Tower of the Gods in The Wind Waker, where they are activating by shooting them with the Hero's Bow. Most of the Eye Plaques are used to activate small moving platforms that allow Link to cross various bottomless pits, while one Eye Plaque on floor 2F creates a Treasure Chest containing a Joy Pendant. Another one on floor 1F opens a hidden room with a Chest containing Treasure Chart 6.

Four Swords Adventures



The Minish Cap

Eyeball Switches appear in Dungeons in The Minish Cap, particularly the Fortress of Winds, the Palace of Winds, and Dark Hyrule Castle. They can only be activated by shooting them with the Bow; they often come in pairs, and both Eyeball Switches must be activated in a short amount of time to progress.

Eye Switch
This eye stares unnervingly until you hit it and trigger the switch mechanism. But sometimes I can't really tell if it's done anything. Maybe it should spend less time leering and intimidating and more time being productive.
