The blow was so severe that the heel touched Gavin Taylor's brain.
It is thought the incident occurred while Mr Taylor, 28 was in a taxi with his girlfriend in the early hours of Sunday morning after a night out in Huddersfield, West Yorks.
The shoe is believed to have pierced his eye, passed through his eye socket and touched his brain.
Following the horrific incident Mr Taylor, of Stalybridge, Cheshire, was rushed to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary where he was treated before being transferred to a specialist ward in Leeds, West Yorks.
A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said: "At around 2am on Sunday, police received reports of a serious assault which occurred in a vehicle travelling through Huddersfield town centre.
"A 28-year-old man was struck to the head and taken to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary.
"He was subsequently transferred to Leeds General Infirmary and is currently in a stable but critical condition."
Staci Hargreaves, 33, of Stalybridge, has been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
She spoke only to confirm her name when she appeared at Huddersfield Magistrates Court.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
