"You have a good eye for people" Why does this sentence use "a good eye" and not " good eyes"? (Even though we have 2 eyes)

Hi Mae! Good Eye can be interpreted in many ways. Firstly, it can be used in archery were you see the target with one eye. However, it can also be a complement - say you point out something in the distance, your friend could say to you - "Good Eye!" You saw something far away. Also if say your friend has a new belt (or other clothing item) and you notice it and point it out. They could say "Good Eye" too. Hope this helps you! Have a great weekend :) - Brad

To have an eye for something - to have an ability to notice something. For example: She has a good eye for detail.

Hi Mae, It is a image taken from archery where you sight the target using one eye. Best wishes, Richard
