If the mozzarella balls are not completely round, slice in half on the longer side to make an almond-shaped eye.

I have no idea what the picture is all about because it sure isn't the Menacing Meatball Eyes. My son wanted to make the faces but this is apparently the wrong recipe. Bummer! Meatball Eyes sound good. Might try for Halloween.
