Abstract

A computer implemented method and apparatus for controlling display of displayed digital content using eye movement. The method comprises mapping eye movements, tracked by a camera of a display device, to an area of interest of displayed content. A window containing a magnified version of display content from within the area of interest is generated. The magnified display content from the area of interest is displayed together with display content from outside the area of interest. A hovering pointer gesture is optionally displayed within the area of interest or a selectable function is performed if display content within the area of interest corresponds to a user interface function or a navigation option. According to some embodiments, the window containing magnified display content is only generated and displayed when the display content within the area of interest does not correspond to a user selectable function.
