From the Getty Museum record
Cast inlay in the form of an eye. The eye is outlined in blue glass and has an opaque white scelera, and the pupil is black. The eye was meant to be inserted into a statue. The condition is good with some signs of wear such as small nicks and scratches and some minor signs of discoloration visible on the blue areas.
