damn your eyes
Old-fashioned angry oath
Damn your eyes is an old-fashioned curse expressing anger or frustration toward someone, wishing ill upon them.
The eyes stand in for the whole person—a mild way to damn someone without quite damning their soul.
Now rare except in period pieces or deliberate archaism: Damn your eyes, you scoundrel!
