Eyes of Love (German: Augen der Liebe) is a 1951 West German drama film directed by Alfred Braun and starring Käthe Gold, René Deltgen and Paul Wegener.

The screenplay was written by the director Veit Harlan. Harlan developed the project, but then turned over direction to his friend Braun.

The film was a wartime production, which began shooting in 1942 and was completed in 1944. Planned for a 1945 release, it was blocked by Joseph Goebbels who found the quality poor and disliked the fact that much of it was set in hospitals. It was eventually given a belated post-war release in 1951. By the time it was released, several of its cast members had died.[1]

The film's sets were designed by the art directors Wilhelm Depenau and Alfred Tolle.
