set eyes on

[vil]

Dear teachers,

Would you be kind enough to tell me whether I am right with my interpretation of the expression in bold in the following sentence?

"I hope I may never set eyes on it again.”

set eyes on = look at, see

Thanks for your efforts.

Regards,

V.

Hi, vil. I'm not a teacher.

Yes, you are correct here! The speaker hopes that it will never come into his vision again.

Yes, you are right.

Could you say "it is my intention to never give it my attention nor set my focus on it again."
