The Chinese word for "eyes" is 眼睛 (yǎnjing). It is composed of two characters: 目 (mù), which means "eye", and 睛 (jīng), which means "pupil". The character 目 is a pictograph, depicting an eye with a pupil. The character 睛 is a phonetic compound, combining the sound component 青 (qīng) with the meaning component 日 (rì), which means "sun". The combination of these two characters creates the word 眼睛, which literally means "eye pupil". This term is used to refer to the entire eye, including the eyeball, pupil, and surrounding area.
