Yes, “don’t” and “doesn’t” are correct. “Today’s eyes” is a bit odd. 🙂

Thank you so much, I see, it was for a poem, what could be a more natural way to say it?

Well, it depends on what you mean. The phrase “today’s eyes” isn’t common (a day doesn’t have eyes, after all) so I’m not sure what it means. But in a poem it might not matter—perhaps you want to let each reader decide what it means to him or her.
