So idk if was reffering to the Eyes Of The Falmer (a.k.a gems that Mercer was trying to steal) or to the real eyes in the face of the falmers that may be hidden. I think was the real eyes because i see no point in taking the gems (well im not a dwemer so idk), and the dwemer could have taken his eyes to make sure that they could control the falmer with they turned against the dwemer in they slavery

P.S. Sorry for my grammar, idk english that much He was talking about the items. Since the statue is the only representation, the man was so insane that he thought it was a real Falmer. I guess the man is saying that the real eyes are those gems, as in they are more important than the sight of the whole race (which could make sense, since their other senses have increased to the point that sight doesn't really matter).
