Eye detection has multiple applications including iris recognition, identifying people in video conferencing, face recognition, and identification. This paper presents a new approach of eye detection in digital images through using morphology operations and color. As observed, an area of image where the eye is located shows low brightness level, large edge density and high contrast comparing other parts of face. The proposed method is highly effective for full faces. In this regard, the area characterized with skin features is initially identified in image by existing color devices such as RGB and/or HSV. Then, two spots are localized as eyes using morphology and removing redundant points. The results revealed that the proposed method is particularly effective for full- face images.
