Eye Icon
eye · Security · 6 styles
Open the Security set and Eye is one of the glyphs you get. It is one of 46 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Eye lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "eye", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
The metaphor here is the idea of locks, keys, shields and access control. That places Eye in the Security family, which covers locks, keys, shields and access control and turns up in login screens, permission matrices, 2FA flows and privacy settings. Teams building products where trust has to be visible reach for this set first. Use Eye where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Eye in 6 styles
Eye ships in 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

You register only the variants you actually render, so nothing unused reaches the bundle. Import EyeBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/security" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for eye live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.
import { EyeBold, EyeBoldDuotone, EyeLinear, EyeOutline, EyeBroken, EyeLineDuotone } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/security';import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core';
import { provideSolarIcons } from '@rchernando/solar-icons';
import { EyeBold } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/security';
export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
providers: [provideSolarIcons(EyeBold)]

<solar-icon name="eye" iconStyle="bold-duotone" size="24px" />

Icons drawn alongside it in Security include Eye Scan, Key, Key Minimalistic Square, Key Minimalistic Square3, Key Square, Lock, Lock Keyhole Minimalistic and Lock Keyhole Unlocked. They share stroke weight and corner radius with Eye, so mixing them in one toolbar stays consistent.

If Eye is not quite the shape you want, Eye Closed and Eye Scan share part of its name and often work as substitutes.
Elsewhere in the library
Further afield in the catalog, User Heart, Flashlight On, Share Circle, Call Dropped, Minimalistic Magnifer Bug and Upload Track2 cover neighbouring ideas; the name "eye" is 3 characters long and splits into 1 token, which is how the explorer's search matches it.
Eye icon FAQ
- How do I use the eye icon in Angular?
- Import EyeBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/security", register it with provideSolarIcons(EyeBold) and render <solar-icon name="eye" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Eye support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of eye?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Eye inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
