Sydney Wells (Jessica Alba) is an accomplished concert violinist who has been blind since a childhood tragedy. Sydney undergoes a double corneal transplant, and her sight is restored. But Sydney's happiness is short-lived as unexplainable shadowy and frightening images start to haunt her. Are they a passing aftermath of her surgery, Sydney's mind adjusting to sight, a product of her imagination, or something horrifyingly real? As Sydney's family and friends begin to doubt her sanity, Sydney is soon convinced that her anonymous eye donor has somehow opened the door to a terrifying world only she can now see.

Production:
Remake rights to the Pang Brothers' original 2002 Hong Kong film, The Eye, were purchased by Cruise/Wagner Productions, and their remake follows Naina, a Hindi movie released in 2005, that is also based on the Pang Brothers' film.

The Hollywood remake was initially set to be produced by Paramount Pictures, with Renée Zellweger as star, and Hideo Nakata as director. However, after Tom Cruise and Sumner Redstone, chairman of Paramount-parent Viacom had a public falling-out in 2006, the film was picked up by Lions Gate Entertainment, which then gave the lead role to Jessica Alba and David Moreau and Xavier Palud were brought in as directors.

Production commenced in late 2006 and was continuing in August 2007, with some reshoots in Vancouver. Other filming locations included Albuquerque, New Mexico and Los Angeles, California.

Alba took six months of violin lessons to prepare for her role as a blind soloist. The music used in the teaser trailer is that of Blaqk Audio, a new electronic project featuring the lead singer Davey Havok and guitarist Jade Puget from rock group AFI. The two songs featured in the teaser are "Between Breaths (an XX perspective) and "The Love Letter" off their 2007 album debut CexCells. The film has been rated PG-13 by the MPAA for "violence/terror and disturbing content."
