Did the toilet parts have eyes before being combined into a finished toilet? What critical mass of size or function is necessary for a thing to deserve eyes?
Do eyes spontaneously appear and vanish as things are dis/assembled? Do sets of eyes indicate distinct consciousnesses, and what happens to each consciousness as its body parts are combined or separated?
The eyes sprout once the object is "complete", interpret that how you will.
It's been shown that items as small as Nintendo 64 cartridges can grow the eyes.
