"Eye of the Beholder" (also titled "The Private World of Darkness" when initially rebroadcast in the summer of 1962) is episode 42 of the American television anthology series The Twilight Zone.
Suspended in time and space for a moment, your introduction to Miss Janet Tyler, who lives in a very private world of darkness.
A universe whose dimensions are the size, thickness, length of the swath of bandages that cover her face.
Unable to bear the bandages any longer, Janet pleads with the doctor and eventually convinces him to remove them early.
Janet is revealed to be a beautiful woman by contemporary standards while the hospital staff all possess monstrous faces with drooping features, large, thick brows, sunken-in eyes, swollen and twisted lips, and wrinkled noses with pig snout-like nostrils.
Distraught by the procedure's failure, Janet tries to escape until a similarly attractive man named Walter Smith arrives to take her to a village of "[her] own kind" where they will not trouble the State.
[3] Serling, who wrote the episode, reused the theme for a later teleplay, "The Different Ones", for his series Night Gallery.
"The Different Ones" takes place in a futuristic world where a disfigured hermit teenage boy is sent on a NASA rocket to a planet where the inhabitants are revealed to look like him.
