they are quite clear on what the "eye" will and wont do, but i think some re-sellers just add their own definitions

The Optical eye is a laser pointing device for Contour Cutting. It is supported by software such as SignCut Pro and Flexi-Starter.

Its a shame as it seems to catch a lot of people out, but to sell it as an add on is really taking the mickey

... and always add to the price big time!!! i have seen £20-£50 difference of same cutter with and without this pointer. marketing genius. £50 for something that does nothing :)
