Staring eye is a type of monster in ADOM. They are uncommon monsters that can confuse the PC should their attack damage him/her. Although (physically) slightly tougher than floating eyes, since they can't paralyze on touch (or at all) they are usually less dangerous to take on in melee. Like all eyes, they seem to be strong of will, sometimes resisting mindcraft completely.

Monster memory[]
A stronger variety of floating eye, these obviously use their paralyzing stare in an aggressive, feeding manner. They are stronger than their small cousin, the floating eye, but their food source and method of consumption are still something of a mystery.
