An eye rhyme, also known as a sight rhyme or a visual rhyme, is a type of poetic device in which words appear to rhyme, often because they share similar spellings, despite having different pronunciations. Common examples of eye rhymes include words like "love" and "move," "laughter" and "daughter," or "through" and "cough." Other synonyms for eye rhyme include superficial rhyme, false rhyme, or half rhyme. While eye rhymes may add visual interest to poetry, they are not always considered true rhymes, which rely on exact matches in sound and pronunciation. Nevertheless, eye rhymes can be effective tools for creating memorable and evocative poetic imagery, and have been used by poets throughout history to achieve a range of artistic effects.
