How do I get a mechanical eye in Terraria?
To obtain a Mechanical Eye in Terraria, you can craft it at a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil, or it can be dropped by Hardmode enemies, except statue-spawned enemies, Meteor Heads, and Old One’s Army enemies, with a 1/2500 (0.04%) chance until The Twins are defeated. The Mechanical Eye is used to summon The Twins, one of the three mechanical bosses in the game, which can be a challenging but rewarding experience for players.

The term mechanical bosses refers to three Hardmode bosses: The Destroyer, The Twins, and Skeletron Prime, which are grouped together under this generic term due to sharing certain characteristics: they can be summoned by mechanical items, and are themselves metallic and robotic in appearance, resembling mechanical creatures.
