Feb 21, 2020 at 15:53 comment added Jochen Glueck Welcome to MathOverflow! I don't quite see what kind of result you are looking for. By choosing $A=0$ and by choosing a skew-symmetric matrix $S$ that has only $i\|S\|$ and $-i\|S\|$ as eigenvalues, you can see that the result that you mentioned (below the paragraph that is written italic) is optimal.

Feb 21, 2020 at 14:16 comment added user98563 You are right. Sorry about that, I corrected the formulation.

Fixed mistake
Feb 21, 2020 at 13:40 comment added David Handelman The result for normal matrices is misstated---take diagonal matrices. The best I can see is that for any eigenvalue $\lambda$ of $A$, there exists an eigenvalue $\mu$ of $B$ such that $|\lambda - \mu| \leq \epsilon$. If $A$ and $B$ are symmetric, then the eigenvalues are real and can be ordered, and a stronger result is available.
