If you are trying to read into it
Eyes mean watching with interest: intrigue, receipts, or "I saw that". In Slack, 👀 on a message means someone is looking into it, which is a small contract of attention. On a photo of a person it is flirtation, and it is one of the few emoji where that shift is genuinely reliable.
