The Eye Guy is an eye themed monster, created by Finster who serves as the main antagonist of the episode "I, Eye Guy". He could absorb human intelligence, fire energy eyes from his body and recreate his body, made from eye balls. He is one Rita's and Zedd's favorite monsters and so was recreated by them multiple times and a supporting antagonist of all his later appearances. He is still to this day one of the most well known monsters of the entire franchise.
Biography
Eye Guy was created by Finster. Rita Repulsa had once employed Eye Guy's skills on Redna 2 to capture incredibly bright children to use their intelligence for evil. Eye Guy was one of Rita Repulsa's favorite monsters and Eye Guy seemed to show some attraction and loyalty to her, calling her "lovely" and "a sight for sore eyes". Eye Guy had an array of energy beam attacks he could launch from his various eyes, and could reassemble himself if blown apart as long as his main eye remained undamaged. Eye Guy's mission was to capture a highly-intelligent child so Rita Repulsa could absorb their intelligence. Eye Guy captured Billy's friend Willie and was challenged by the Power Rangers. Eye Guy proved to be invulnerable to their Power Blaster and had them on the ropes until Billy destroyed his main eye. Grown to giant size by Rita, Eye Guy was destroyed by the Megazord, freeing the child before Rita Repulsa could get to him.

Eye Guy was later recreated by Finster to attack the Rangers at the Spectre Theater. He later attended Rita and Lord Zedd's wedding, bringing a caged spider for "either a decoration or a light snack."

- The costume for Eye Guy was recycled for Men in White as one of the aliens on Glaxxon's ship.
- An alien of the Ben 10 series has the same name as this villain: Eye Guy and has many eyes. However, Power Rangers Eye Guy is entirely eyes whereas Ben 10 Eye Guy still has a body aside from the eyes.
- The reason for this is the two characters have basis from a character in Greek mythology known as Argus Panoptes who is often described as having hundreds of eyes.
