• When talking about the eyes in anatomical sense, the 2nd plural is used (for example: "My eyes hurt." - "Oči me bolijo."; or "The spiders have eight eyes." - "Pajki imajo osem oči.").
• In other cases, where the word "oko" means other things (for example: "oko" meaning "a sprout on a potato"; or "kurje oko" meaning "a callus"), the normal plural is used.
• The dual is used when referring specifically to both eyes (for example: "He lost both eyes in the war." - "V vojni je izgubil obe očesi.").
