Quick and Snappy!
π The dart should happen over 1 frame, or you can add a 1 frame ease close to the new position (it should be barely noticeable). If the eye is traveling a large distance, you can add a smear frame like in this animation of Dolores from Encanto. (2/5)π§΅πππ

π Natural: Irregular in timing/spacing/shape
The goal is to make the motion believable.
Make sure the timing between the darts is not the same and the eye doesnβt travel the same distance every time. Have an irregular triangle or rhomboid shaped path! (3/5)π§΅πππ

π Include the eyelids
The bulging shape of the cornea naturally pushes the upper and lower eyelid around when it moves, so make sure to include subtle secondary motion for an even more natural feel. (4/5)π§΅πππ
