Neal Agarwal's eyes-only video chat sets you up with a stranger's eyes only.

      I was thinking it could be used as a kind of exposure therapy to help with that aversion. At least, I’d be willing to try it out for that purpose.

      And because I can't help myself from making very dated TV references:

      'Eyes Only' streaming freedom video from the 2001 series 'Dark Angel'

      Do not attempt to adjust your set. This is a Streaming Freedom Video bulletin. The cable hack will last exactly 60 seconds. It cannot be traced, it cannot be stopped and it is the only free voice left in the city.

        That’s what I thought. But I’m not particularly afraid of eye contact, I’m just not good at it. But just reading the article with those pictures made me uncomfortable.

        Maybe if it’s just one set of eyes staring at me instead of 5 that’d be better.

          Pretty much my thoughts (and experience) as well.

          There’s the AI nvidia tool that makes your eyes always looking at the screen. Could be useful for video calls?
