Symbol for eye (looking for a library)

Question

I was wondering if anybody knows about Latex symbol for an eye, either frontal or lateral view.

Frontal:

Lateral:

Update I knew about Detexify and searched there. It didn't work. Detexify took the eyes as some malformed alphabetic characters.

Answer 1

I have created two eyes symbols with Mathcha➡TikZ that reproduce largely your picture that they can be used in text and in math mode. Your names are \frontaleye and \lateraleye. With \scalebox{<factor>} you can increase or decrease the size of the symbols.

    This is a \frontaleye frontal eye in text mode. In math-mode you have:
    \[d\colon \frontaleye \to \mathbb{N}\]
    
    Let \lateraleye text lateral eye in text mode and in math-mode:
    \[r\colon \lateraleye \to \mathbb{Z}\]
    \end{document}

You can see that it is possibile to choose the color of the eye.

Answer 2

After checking user TrongVuong1998's answer, I went to the linked answer out of curiosity. And I discovered fontAwesome. So, here's my two cents to my own question:

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{fontawesome}
\begin{document}
\fontsize{24}{0}\selectfont
\faEye
\end{document}

Answer 3

If you use the dingbat package, you will get a frontal view of an eye by typing \eye.

Answer 4

Also pst-optic package have your original \eye as shown in this MWE:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{pst-optic}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\newcommand*\latseye{%
       \scalebox{0.25}{\begin{pspicture}(-1,-1)(1,1)
\rput(1,-.5){\eye}
\end{pspicture}\kern1em}}
\newcommand*\latdeye{%
       \reflectbox{\scalebox{0.25}{\begin{pspicture}(-1,-1)(1,1)
\rput(1,-.5){\eye}
\end{pspicture}\kern.2em}}}

\begin{document}
\latseye and \latdeye
\end{document}

Answer 5

Another eye is that of protosem package:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{protosem}
\begin{document}
\textproto{\Aayin}
\end{document}
