<upd_detl>I felt better making clear that the intended forms are "目元" and "目もと". I hope I was not wrong using a note for this goal.</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>デジタル大辞泉 shows 眼元 in its examples, even though very rare.

Japanese people in general agree 目元 and 目もと are the most used forms, with 目許 being encountered mainly in novels when people is wearing something around their eyes.

<upd_detl>The usual practice is to put the surface forms in order of "commonness". See http://www.edrdg.org/wiki/index.php/Editorial_policy#Kanji.2FSpecial-Character_Forms  We don't usually have a comment on which are the really common ones, or we'd have far too many such comments (almost invariably the first one or two dominate). I and other editors have access to counts drawn from the Google n-gram corpus (sorry I can't make access public). For this entry the counts are:
目元	619563
目もと	151255
目許	3057
眼元	1688
眼許	89</upd_detl>
