            Abstract : 
This paper gives an alternative approach for detecting eyes in human faces. The difference introduced is that instead of providing an absolute result, the algorithm goes through a number of iterations dynamically until the eyes are identified certainly, which proves benevolent when detecting certain faces wherein the eyes cannot be prominently seen, such as with glasses.
