Watched this movie a 1,000 times. My daughter loves it and watched it over and over again.
The eyes are the window to the soul, and once she has your eyes she has your soul.
The other three children let the mother sow buttons into their eyes, and she was able to keep them in the other world. In the original book the mother eats the three children, and their spirits are trapped. The children warn Coraline not to let her sow buttons in her eyes, and Coraline helps free their souls at the end.
I don't think there is really anything deeper in the meaning then that. If Coraline lets the mother sow the buttons into her eyes, then she is becoming compliant and accepting of the new world she's in.
