'''Eyons''' are creatures composed entirely of ocular tissue.<ref name="Logbook"/> They plant themselves in clusters on the walls of the [[Chozo Ruins]] on [[Tallon IV]]. When an Eyon detects an intruder, it will fire a sustained green energy beam from its pupil, which is only capable of vertical movement, until stunned by a bright flash (any of Samus's [[beam]]s) or until it is destroyed with a powerful blast, such as those created by [[Samus Aran|Samus's]] [[Charge Beam]].<ref name="Logbook"/> When several Eyons become active at once, the resulting series of beams are an effective blockade against unequipped enemies. A large group of Eyons will awaken only after Samus obtains the Charge Beam, though now Samus will be armed against them.

Apparently, when Eyons die of natural causes they petrify, still latched to the surfaces where they originally existed.<ref>{{cite|This petrified organic matter looks like a rock carved into the shape of an eye.|Scan Data|Metroid Prime}}</ref>

The [[Luminoth]] constructed [[Luminoth Technology#Luminoth Mechanoids|mechanoids]] known as [[Corrupted Sentreye|Sentreyes]] are highly similar to the Eyons, sharing the same weaknesses and attacks, though with increased range and flexibility.
