Eye Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for the reveal toggle at the end of a masked password field, while the value is still hidden; view counts under a post, video or article card, beside likes and comments; and preview commands in a file row menu or editor toolbar that open a page read only. For the hide toggle once the characters are showing, or a column left out of a table, use the Eye Slash icon. For following a thread or repository to get told about new replies, use the Notification On icon. For an audience option that opens a post to anyone on the web, use the Globe icon.

Almond eye with a round pupil, for show password toggles, previews, visibility and view counts. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.
