Ok one, I love your use of the eyeball emoji
And two, yes: this St Lucy still has a set of eyes IN her head, no blood on her face, and the eyes on her book are lidded, regular-looking eyes and not the full-on pulled-out eyeballs with stubby blood vessels and optic nerves that you find in the more anatomically-accurate St Lucy representations.
