Thief and Blade Runner use a lot of EYE symbolism. Also, the close-up of Garrett's mechanical eye reflecting and observing the fire and spray of sparks from a welder working is somewhat related to the close-up of the eye observing the big city with industrial fire belching into the sky reflected on it.
Could you put that one with the Garrett's eye? The other one is well known indeed.

The City, industrial, grimy, smoggy, lots of smoke-stacks. Slow spinning fans. Garrett vs. robots that seem too alive to be mere machines. The future noir detective elements, the voice-overs.
Hmmmm I though that the grimmy,industrial and smoggy were took from London city as inspiration... And for the machines... sorry, but I see not all this similarity.
They could not be just but coincidences? I better believe in this theory.

thanks jtr7 for this, I never knew about this Thief/Blade Runner connection, it is very very interesting.

Amazing.
Even the pupil colour is the same.

Yeah. I'm sure there's more, but I'm usually not thinking about it while digging around or playing the games, but these are some things I spotted, especially after reading that Dan Thron really digs Blade Runner. I bought the five-disc set that came out last year, and that's when I first noticed the Viki giggles.:)
Hopefully someone can spot more--coincidence or not.
