I love the duality of eyepatches, worn by pirates, villains, and the occasional hero. They simultaneously represent both danger and vulnerability. Nick Fury of S.H.E.I.L.D. from Marvel Comics wears one, which is an intrinsic part of his character. It hints of previous battles against evil, which were won, but not without sacrifice and personal lost.
