Eye of Greed is an unlockable passive item added in Afterbirth †.
Effects
- Adds a golden tear every 20 tears fired, which causes enemies to turn gold and freeze for a few seconds (similar to
Midas' Touch) at the cost of one penny. Golden tears can still be fired if Isaac has no money.
- Unlike other tear effects, golden tears are fired alongside regular tears rather than replacing a regular tear.
- With multi-shot abilities, whichever tear is the 20th since previous will produce the additional golden tear.
- The golden tear deals 2x normal damage.
- Enemies killed while golden will drop 1-4 pennies.
Notes
- Tears fired from items that cause multiple tears to be fired at once, e.g. 20/20, Monstro's Lung etc., are counted.
- The gold tear is not duplicated by above said items.

Synergies

- Compound Fracture: Golden tears will still look like coins and will still split into other golden coins when hitting obstacles.
- Lachryphagy: Golden tears can also be fed and will burst into split tears. Burst tears are not golden.
