eyeless
Lacking visual organs
Eyeless means lacking eyes, whether literally or through loss: eyeless fish in underground caves, the eyeless sockets of a skull.
Figuratively, it can suggest blindness to something or an inability to perceive: eyeless to the suffering around him.
The word appears more often in literary or scientific contexts than everyday speech.
