Eyeball Switches[1] are recurring dungeon mechanics in The Legend of Zelda series. These switches consist of a single eye surrounded by a diamond box. They are activated by firing arrows into their eyes. Some of them allow for a second arrow to be fired into a closed eye to deactivate the switch.

Variations

Traditional Eyeball Switch

  • This is the most commonly found form of Eyeball Switches. Activating it requires an arrow fired into the eye.

Frozen Eyeball Switch

  • This form of the Eyeball Switch[2] consists of a chunk of ice covering the switch, preventing typical arrows from activating it. Fire of some form must be used to melt the switch, which is enough to activate it as well.

Fire Eyeball Switch

  • The Fire Eyeball Switch at first glance appears gray with the eyelid closed. However, when approached, it opens up releasing fire of a varying duration. The only way to disable this switch is to fire an arrow into the eye when the switch releases flames.
  • This switch does not act as a real switch. Firing or destroying into it will do nothing.
