His dream suggests that he may have some anxiety about a compromise he is facing that may rob him of some of his freedom or abilities.To lose a body part can mean many things - teeth often relate to fear of aging, loss of health or vanity, an arm or leg some sort of robbing of motility or ability. The eye suggests the compromising of one of the senses - that he will no longer have the fully vital sense of what he has enjoyed in the past. It suggests perhaps having to face life with a more limited scope than he had imagined for himself, or than perhaps he has enjoyed in the past.This may relate to some change he may be facing or contemplating in the life before him - school, career, social - anything like that where some fairly major and permanent change is being considered can do this. It can also relate to some change in lifestyle - where one has had privilege but now finds burden. The idea can become a bit of a fixation - even if not really consciously so - and embed in the subconscious mind for this kind of release via the dream.This does not have to involve anything that is really negative or huge - just a relative but important change for him, a paradigm shift from that he's known as the 'norm' for himself will do it. One key is that he 'keeps dreaming' this thing - so something is apparently out there that he needs to identify and come to grips with. Once that is done his subconscious mind can be put at ease to help the dreams stop (I'm fairly certain they are not pleasant).Dreams often warn us of things that need attention. In this case that may be true - but not necessarily that he needs to avoid the 'thing' that may be driving it. It may be that he simply needs to face whatever it may be and make some rational choices and find peace in his decision on going forward - it may just be the unsettled question that is driving this dreaming.Only your boyfriend can really see how this may fit, but what I've written is well suggested by what you have described. Perhaps you can help him refine the context of the dream and identify some potential drivers - that may help. Or, he may simply need to reflect on some of this very personally - that's for you two to work out since he has shared this dream with you.All the best for his finding sweeter dreams and for your happiness.
