Pop-Eyes is the first solo album by Danielle Dax, an English experimental musician and former member of The Lemon Kittens. It was originally recorded in the fall of 1982 and released on 22 April 1983 on the Awesome Records label. The album was re-released in 1992 on the Biter Of Thorpe label (BOT131-01CD) and distributed through World Serpent Distribution.

Dax wrote and produced all the songs on the album as well as playing the guitar, drums, bass, flute, keyboards, banjo, tenor & soprano saxophones, trumpet, tapes, drone guitar, TR-808, toys and voices. The original "Meat Harvest" art work for Pop Eyes was also created by Dax and proved to be too shocking for some in the music industry. It was later replaced with artwork created by Holly Warburton. Warburton's artwork can be found on most of Dax's early work.
