Claim:
1. A method for processing eye potential, comprising: receiving an eye potential detected by a first electrode and a second electrode respectively provided on a surface of a pair of nose pads of an eyewear and operable to detect the eye potential; determining a visual line of a human wearing the eyewear on the basis of the eye potential if an operation mode in which a visual line detection process is executed has been set; transitioning from the operation mode to a wait mode in which the visual line detection processing is not executed if it is determined that the eye potentials of both of the first electrode and the second electrode are substantially equal to a predetermined value for a predetermined period of time or longer, the predetermined value indicating that the electrode is distanced from the skin of the human; and issuing a warning if it is determined that the eye potential of either one of the first electrode and the second electrode is substantially equal to the predetermined value for the predetermined period of time or longer.
