In your eyes

Could you tell me if this sentence is correct? If so is the first clause necessary? 'in your eyes'?
In your eyes, who do you think the outsider at this party is?

Thank you

This expression isn't used in this way in English, so your sentence sounds unnatural. What you need here is probably "as far as you can tell, from what you can see".

'Do you think' seems to express it all; I see no call for any additional phrase: Who do you think the outsider at this party is?
