👀Eyes Emoji
Tagged body, eye and face, 👀 eyes sits in Unicode's Body Parts group inside People & Body. It was introduced in Unicode 6.0 (2010) at U+1F440.
What 👀 eyes means
Anatomy used both literally and as slang. 👀 rarely means eyes - it means look at this, or I am watching. 💪 stands in for effort or a gym session. The 2019 release added 🦾, 🦿 and 🦻 as part of a deliberate accessibility push, and 🫀 anatomical heart and 🫁 lungs followed in 2020.
Unicode tags this one body, eye and face and files it under People & Body → Body Parts.
