This disclosure relates generally to method and system for predicting distance of gazed objects using IR camera. Eye tracking technology is widely used to study human behavior and patterns in eye movements. Existing gaze trackers focus on predicting gaze point and hardly analyzes distance of the gazed object from the gazer or directly classify region of focus. The method of the present disclosure predicts gazed objects distance using a pair of IR cameras placed on either side of a smart glass. The gaze predictor ML model predicts distance at least one gazed object positioned from eye of each subject during systematic execution of a set of tasks. From each pupillary information of each pupil a set of features are extracted which are utilized to classify the gazed object of the subject based on the distance into at least one of a near class, an intermediate class, and a far class.
