There are some versions why left eye is missed:
1. The missing eye led to speculation that Nefertiti may have suffered from an ophthalmic infection.
2. The 2nd that the bust in Berlin was a model for official portraits and was used by the master sculptor for teaching his pupils how to carve the internal structure of the eye, and thus the left iris was not added.
