eyeholes

Where vision peeks

Eyeholes are openings cut for the eyes—in masks, hoods, or costumes: The eyeholes in his Halloween mask were too small to see through.

The term also refers to the eye sockets of a skull, or informally to the eyes themselves, often in threats: I'll poke your eyeholes out.
