That can be done with an electrooculograph (I think that's what it's
called). There was a design published in Circuit Cellar a few years back.
It involves 2 electrodes on the forehead and one on the neck, to track
eye position. As an input device, it's even worse than a mouse, so thus
far the only application is for people who have lost the use of their
hands. Still, it sounds pretty neat to play with, and I wonder if it
might be effective for setting input focus in a GUI.
