For the passive feature that can be obtained via surgery see Volo's Ersatz Eye.
Volo's Ersatz Eye is a common item that can be used to grant a permanent See Invisibility buff.
While the ersatz eye is embedded in your eye socket, you can see through the tiny orb as though it were a normal eye. Can't be removed once inserted.
A hollow bead of white glass, carefully painted to resemble a realistic eye. Its tarnished brass fittings hum with a tinge of magic.

Rarity: Common
Weight: 0.2 kg / 0.4 lb
Price: 220 gp
Effect
- If received through dialogue gives the player Volo's Ersatz Eye condition - a permanent See Invisibility buff. Like the spell, this buff allows you to see creatures that are Invisible within 9 metres if they fail a
Dexterity saving throw. - Otherwise the item is a useless bauble.
Where to find
- As an item, the eye can be looted from Volo's corpse. However in order to gain See Invisibility buff, the player must undergo the surgery.
- Once Volo has been rescued (see the quest Rescue Volo), you may tell him to find you in camp.
- In camp, Volo can attempt to remove the player's tadpole via an experimental operation.
- Needless to say - because Volo is a bumbling fool - this operation is unsuccessful and leaves the player character permanently blind in one eye. However, he gives you the ersatz eye, which negates the blindness and grants a permanent See Invisibility buff.
Notes
- Regardless of the character's appearance, the eye's appearance is always the same - equivalent to the "Blue 3" eye color option in the character creator - and cannot be changed even with the Magic Mirror. If the eye on the other side is a Tiefling or Dragonborn style eye, the combination may be particularly jarring.
- In Early Access, the ersatz eye could be pickpocketed from Volo. In the full release of the game, the player must go through with his surgery in order to obtain the eye or kill him.
- In Early Access, the ersatz eye provided +1 to
Charisma and -1 to 
Intelligence.
