The eye of exit is an item exclusive to 25w14craftmine. It serves as that version's counterpart to the eye of ender, pointing toward the nearest mine exit instead of a stronghold.
Obtaining
Crafting
An eye of exit is crafted using eight copper ingots surrounding one iron ingot.

Obtaining an eye of exit in the player's inventory completes the "Spy Eye" advancement. Crafting one also unlocks the Rare Surface Exits mine ingredient.
Mine revisitors
The player receives an eye of exit upon entering an archived mine through a mine revisitor. In a revisited mine, the eye instead acts as an immediate means of returning to the Hub.
Usage
Locating mine exits
Pressing use with an eye of exit in a normal mine causes it to fly toward the nearest mine exit, passing through blocks and leaving purple particles. If the exit is more than 12 blocks away, the eye travels about 12 blocks in its direction and rises eight blocks. When used within 12 blocks of the exit, it travels toward the exit's exact location.
Using an eye of exit inflicts 2HP
damage on the player. Purchasing the "Pathfinder" player unlock prevents this damage. The damage is applied before the game checks for a valid exit, so attempting to use the item where no exit can be located still damages the player.
After flying for approximately four seconds, the eye either drops as an item or shatters. It has an 80% chance of dropping and a 20% chance of shattering. One eye is consumed when the projectile is successfully launched.
The eye cannot locate an exit in a special mine, because special mines do not contain a compatible mine-exit structure. It consequently does not launch or get consumed there, although the player still takes damage unless Pathfinder has been unlocked.
Leaving revisited mines
Using an eye of exit while revisiting an archived mine immediately returns the player to the Hub. In this situation, the eye does not launch, damage the player, or perform a structure search.
Crafting ingredient
In 25w14craftmine, the eye of exit replaces the eye of ender in the recipes for ender chests and end crystals.
