The Eye of Agamotto is a mystic artifact created by the god-being Agamotto. It is one of the symbols of office of those who hold the title of Sorcerer Supreme. It is literally Agamotto's third eye and was entrusted to the entity known as Eternity who held onto it until such time that a worthy successor could be found to wield it.

The Eye of Agamotto, housed within the Amulet of Agamotto, is clasped to the collar of the Cloak of Levitation where it remains in a dormant state during inactivity. When called upon, the iris of the Eye's amulet housing opens and a representation of the eye is projected upon the brow of the user, literally creating a third eye, or All-Seeing Eye.

The Eye of Agamotto grants its user several magical abilities. It can project a wave of bright, white light which is composed of pure white magic energy. It can dispel illusions and other forms of deception. It grants the user keen insight and perception into the soul of another.
