The Tibetans use "eyes" to describe the whitelined designs on dZi beads. The higher the number of eyes, the greater its powers. The legendary 13-eyed dZi bead allows one to attain whatever one desires and is, thanks to its great number of eyes, without rival. Warding off evil, eye beads have been important to many cultures.
藏人慣用「眼」來稱呼天珠上的白色圓形圖案，眼數越多，法力越是殊勝，傳說中「十三眼天珠」能夠心想事成，所向無敵，也是以眼數取勝。
