The invention is related a method and a remote eye tracking system for determining a position of at least one eye of a subject. The method comprises the steps of: illuminating a face of a subject using at least one infrared (IR) illuminator off-axis from at least one image sensor; capturing at least one image of the face using the at least one image sensor at a time instant; and using a processing circuitry of the remote eye tracking system, performing processing steps of: determining at least one pupil candidate associated with the at least one image; determining at least one glint candidate associated with the at least one image; determining at least one pupil-glint candidate group, comprising at least one pupil candidate and at least one corresponding glint candidate; generating a score value for each of the at least one pupil-glint candidate groups; and determining an eye position of at least one eye of the subject in the at least one image based on the pupil-glint candidate group with the highest score value.
