Morphology
binoculars = binocular (transparent) = bi + ocular + s
The plural is formed by a regular '-s' from the singular 'binocular', and the singular itself transparently combines 'bi-' (two) + 'ocular' (relating to the eye).
Etymology
The word binoculars comes from bi- meaning 'two' and ocular meaning 'eye', from the Latin oculus. Think of bicycle, which also uses bi- for 'two'; binoculars let both eyes work together to see far away, so they are tools for using two eyes to see distant things.
