b - The bright star is visible to the eye. The word 'bright' tells that the stars is visible; no need for 'to the eye'.

None of them necessarily need to be changed. Even 'B' in the case where the star is visible with say.. a telescope but you're not sure about the eye. That's why we have the expression 'visible to the naked eye'.
If this is a test and there has to be a right answer, then I suppose it's B.

B-if it is visible, you can see it. So to the eye seems redundant unless your writing an astronomy paper where the star is only visible by telescope, bright or not.
Comet McNaughton is now visible to the naked eye.
Printed everywhere. . .and correct.
Stupid question.

Sentence B contains the phrase "to the eye" which is unnecessary since the term "visible" means exactly that!

B is the obvious answer. With this said, I would say that A can also be consider repetitious as a star is bright and if it wasn't it would not be visible. :-) T

b- visible implies that the star is seen so there is no need to mention the eye.
