The final entry in the series, "Final Destination 5," won back fans after the negative reception of "The Final Destination." While still featuring a 3D gimmick, the visuals are significantly improved, and the use of depth afforded by the 3D effect, while certainly not subtle, nevertheless enhances many of the gory kills.

One such kill occurs in an optometrist's office, where Olivia (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) receives laser eye surgery. She has a comfort Teddy Bear she squeezes so hard its eye pops out, foreshadowing her fate. During the eye surgery, the doctor leaves Olivia alone, strapped into her chair with a laser beam pointed at her face.

Shockingly, Olivia is not burned to death by the laser, though it does sear her face and hand. Eventually, she's rescued, but then slips on the eye of the Teddy Bear from the beginning of the scene, causing her to plummet out of the window of the high-rise office building. The impact of the landing causes her non-lasered eye to fall out of her head, where it is promptly run over by a passing car.
