Exegesis
The accusative marker ʾēṯ marks šikkutzei ʿēnêhem {אֵת שִׁקּוּצֵי עֵינֵיהֶם | ʾēṯ šiqqûṣê ʿē-nê-hem} ‘the detestable things of their eyes’, intensifying the moral aversion.
In context — Ezekiel 20:8
But they rebelled against Me and were unwilling to listen to Me; they did not cast away the detestable things of their eyes , nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said that I would pour out My wrath upon them to bring My anger to completion in the midst of the land of Egypt.
