The Mechanical Eye is a Hardmode boss-summoning item that summons The Twins when used. It can be used in any biome, but only at night.

If the Twins have not been defeated yet in a Hardmode world, all enemies have a 1/2500 (0.04%) chance of dropping a Mechanical Eye, with the exception of statue-spawned enemies, Meteor Heads, and Old One's Army enemies.
