An eye tracking apparatus and an eye tracking method for the eye tracking apparatus are provided. The eye tracking apparatus includes an image capture device and a computing device. The image capture device is adapted to capture at least one face image. The computing device is coupled to the image capture device. The computing device receives the face image to obtain an eye image and identifies at least one iris region of the eye image. The computing device chooses the largest iris region from the iris regions to obtain a fitting pattern of the largest iris region and obtains a gaze point of the eye image based on the fitting pattern.
