The idiom is referencing a snake -- when they shed skin, the scales over their eyes turn cloudy and they can't see well until it sheds off. When the scales fall off, their vision returns. When the scales fall from your eyes, suddenly you see the truth.
The phrase "scales falling from the eyes" is found in Acts 9:18, where it describes the moment of the Apostle Paul's conversion. After being blinded by a bright light on the road to Damascus, Paul regained his sight when Ananias laid hands on him, and it is described as scales falling from his eyes.
It comes from the Christian Bible, Acts 9:18, where the "something like scales" fell from the eyes of the disciple Saul, and he could see again".The Bible presented it as a literal event. According to the story, some sort of substance "like scales" literally fell from Saul's eyes when God restored his sight. Figuratively, however, it also demonstrated that Saul had been blind about who Jesus was, but had come to the realization that Jesus was indeed the Messiah. It completely changed the course of Saul's life.Today, the phrase is used figuratively concerning anyone who has come to a sudden realization of truth, especially when the realization greatly influences the course of his/her life.
