Well, you got your combat aura eye targeting lasers, and you got your Laser Beam Eyes from ancillary power pools. I think the former requires a super booster pack be purchased; I have them all and can't recall if one of them unlocked the eye targeting lasers.

The other methods are the attacks Laser Beam Eyes available to Tankers and Scrappers in their APPs and X-Ray Beam from the Radiation Blast powerset.
Edit: i'm not aware of any new methods of projecting lasers from your eyes being added in i19.

Only powers that offered eye blasts to begin with were given additional options. Specifically those appear to be:
- Radiation Blast: X-ray Beam
Sadly, while the impression was given that Issue 19 would allow you to change the emanation point of powers, the actual implementation of the update is a single new animation for individual powers.

For reference, the Cyborg booster pack also allows you to select lasers for your eyes as costume parts: https://secure.ncsoft.com/cgi-bin/St...tem&item_id=77
You have Rad blast X-Ray Beam, Tanker/Scrapper Energy Mastery APP power Laser Beam Eyes and the Peacebringer's Glinting Eye... those are the only ones that I can think of offhand.

I think the OP may be referring to the power customization, location of attack origin changes in I19 and is confused.
Also it's LASER not LAZER.

He still has to have a character with a powerset that has Laser eyes in the first place, and Radiation Blast X-Ray Beam is the only set/power so far that has an alternate laser eye animation.
Brutes can also get the Energy APP now, I grabbed it on respec when I19 went live. Now my Brute is even more like a certain Kryptonian family.
I asked for sharks with freaking lasers on their heads and all I got was power customization.

Yeah, I think there was an assumption that attacks that previously were fired from the hand could be fired from the chest or the eyes, and attacks that were fired from the eyes could be fired from the hands or chest. |

As it is, we got ONE new animation for most attacks, and most of those were merely a different animation using the hands. It would have been nice if the eye attacks were given an alternate animation that used the hands, but instead we just got a second animation using the eyes.
Interestingly enough, though, I have noticed that some of the Sonic powers (at least in Sonic Resonance) that originated from the mouth now can be fired from the hand. Since the original animations are sort of vague and really only come from the general location of the face, I guess you could say the old attacks are coming from the eyes or head. (Like psychic attacks)

I've found breath powers (fire breath, frost breath) were given alternate animations where the cone originates from an outstretched hand, rather than the head/mouth region.

A completely unfounded assumption, by the way, given that alternate animations already existed for two powersets (Super Strength and Martial Arts), so there was no reason to assume that we would be getting anything different for the ranged sets.|

But people read into things what they want to read, then get angry when reality doesn't match. It's sad and hilarious at the same time.

It does seem odd, though, that the devs redesigned attacks that come from the mouth to have different alternatives, but did not redesign attacks that come from the eyes. I personally think someone was being a goofball.
The OP, though, I think may have been asking about attacks that DON'T come from the eyes being costumized so that they DO. Which is sort of the opposite. So although it's a possibility in the future, the answer is "not at this time".
I read you can do it in i19 but no one in the game can tell me how.
