Googly eyes have the power to give life to inanimate objects in the most simple and satisfying way. These googly eyes were redesigned from the ground up for 3D printing. Just print the parts and pop the pupil into place, no supports required!
This Super Pack has a bunch of variations. I did my best to organize them by file names, so make sure to sort by name, and maybe separate into folders.

// Tips //
➲ In general, Print solid and you should be good! If the pin of the pupil is curling up, you can try printing at a lower temperature, increasing cooling, increasing minimum layer time, lowering layer height.
➲ To prevent the small tabs from breaking, it helps to apply even pressure from both sides when snapping together the parts (pinch between thumb and forefinger)
➲ For the 'No Lashes' variation print the corresponding '_back.stl' file instead of one of the 'Lashes' files. You can also print neither and leave the back exposed
➲ With the Multipass Single Extruder Multicolor pupil, the first color is the pupil. The second color is the Outer Iris. It needs at least .5mm vertical z-hop when traveling to avoid hitting the first color and should be printed in a somewhat transparent filament. The third color is the Inner Iris. It needs 1.1mm z-hop to avoid the second color. Lower layer height = smoother gradient (I used 0.06mm). This technique may take time to perfect. Visit this video for more info
➲ You can also just use a multicolor printer for the 3 color Iris
➲ If the vertical pin on the pupil print is curling up, it may become too loose to stay in place. You can attempt to remedy this by smushing the top of the pin down with a hot knife/end of a lighter, or similar.
For sticking Googly eyes to things :

- less temporary ⇢ XFasten Double Sided Tape : Amazon Link
- invincible ⇢ E6000 Adhesive : Amazon Link
Smaller layer height will perform a bit better. I used 0.1mm

Prints well in PLA, although it may be difficult to remove the pupil once it's stuck in without breaking the tabs. ABS should fair better in that regard.
