Naked eye
Naked eye (also called bare eye) is the practice of engaging in visual perception unaided by a magnifying or light-collecting optical device, such as a telescope or microscope. Vision corrected to normal acuity using corrective lenses is considered "naked". In astronomy, the naked eye may be used to observe events that can be viewed without equipment, such as an astronomical conjunction, the passage of a comet, or a meteor shower. Sky lore and various tests demonstrate an impressive wealth of phenomena that can be seen with the unaided eye.

Naked Eye (The Who song)
"Naked Eye" is a song by The Who, written by Pete Townshend. The studio version was released on the group's 1974 compilation album Odds and Sods (reissued in 1998). Live versions appear on Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970, View from a Backstage Pass, Greatest Hits Live, Thirty Years of Maximum R&B, and both reissues of Who's Next.
Background
One of the main chord progressions in "Naked Eye" can be traced to the spring and summer of 1969 when the band was touring in support of the Tommy album. The three-chord riff (F6/9-Cadd9-G) was sometimes played during the group’s very long and improvised versions of "Magic Bus" at that time, then later in expanded jams during "My Generation", as heard in the Live at Leeds version. Eventually Townshend composed the entire song around this progression.
"Naked Eye" was originally planned to be released on a 1970 Who EP entitled 6 ft. Wide Garage, 7 ft. Wide Car, a collection which was to include "Water", "I Don't Even Know Myself", and "Postcard." There were also plans to release a live version of the song, but neither plan materialized.
