English term

intently

Non-PRO English to Spanish Art/Literary
The eyes of family members change too. My brother Ron's eyes show the sweet stoicism that men seem born to possess. But looking more intently, I see the bubble of pain beneath the surface.

(Time, Aug.26,2002 p.78 "The Faces of Alzheimer's" by Patti Davis)

si te fijas, si prestas atención, cuando le miras con más atención

No creo que "mirar fijamente" pueda usarse en este contexto (al menos a mí me pasa que, cuando me miran fijamente, me siento intimidada, y no creo que sea el caso aquí...)
