certainly, after checking again and choosing "nothing" the eye says "how did I get saddled with one such as you" which indeed implies that they are 2 separate beings, one thing I don't get its that we dont end up fusing ourselves with the eye but with another being, the eye says "together, we shall acend" and then the MC says he is sinking in the darkness (to the eye I assume) until a pressence holds his hand besides him (if he was sinking should't the eye be in front of him?), and this pressence is not the same as the eye as is noted by the MC (The voice is warm, and kind, unlike the harsh and raspy voice I was speaking before). The next line says "we are together now" which can be interpreted as "the mc and the eye got fused" but it can also be interpreted as the other entity saying "we are together now, dont be afraid" as a mother calming her child. And the final line that adds into this theory is "I sink deeper...but not into the dark. I sink deeper... into the warm bossom of the figure besides me". One possibility could be that the eye was "the body" and the other entity was "the memory". But what do you think?
