How do I combine this image's two lines into one

Question

I am not sure what I am asking for here, but maybe it is a merge? That is why I can’t look it up. I had AI created an image that I need to be a vector file to move into CAD software. When I use AI 2026 and do a n image trace and expand I get the object with 2 lines that are adjacent to each there. I laser cutter/engraver does’t like this. Can you please tell me how to merge these lines if that is possible, or delete one set of lines? For some reason, I can’t upload the .ai file here, so here is the original that you may be able to recreate my steps.

I'm not sure about the shapes. when you trace this say the eyes turn into a warpedellipse. there is also an outer outline and an inner outline that are black.  I was hoping to be able to combine those both together as one line or I guess one vector?
