The correct answer is metaphor.
"Similes differ from metaphors by highlighting the similarities between two things using comparison words such as "like", "as", "so", or "than""

Apologies, you're correct. I made an error in my previous response. "Blind eyes could blaze like meteors" is indeed a simile because it establishes a comparison between blind eyes and meteors using the word "like." Thank you for catching that mistake.
