Exegesis
The repeated eis {εἰς | eis} binds the judgment idea to the movement into ton kosmon touton {τὸν κόσμον τοῦτον | tón kós-mon toû-ton} ‘this world,’ making the sphere of arrival and the purpose of arrival tightly linked.
In context — John 9:39
And Jesus said, “I came into this present world with judgment in view, so that those lacking sight may see, and those who see may become blind.”
