The network of 'eyes' in Gilead are designed to make Handmaid's afraid to open up to one another. Those who would be willing to lead a type of resistance are unable to find and communicate with one another. In Chapter 1, the Handmaids have to mouth their names because they can't speak overtly; this sets the tone for the rest of the novel.

The 'eyes' are what Michel Foucault calls the 'panopticon' ['pan' - all; opt - 'see']. Three guards can watch 300 prisoners because of the design of the prison. Prisoners are unaware if the guard is watching them or someone else; its NOT THE WATCHING, but the fear of being watched that controls behavior.
