Whilst you are dragging out a selection using any of the marquee tools (rectangular, circle or single row/column) you can move the selection with the space bar whilst you are still holding down the left mouse button.

Here's an example of how to do it (you're not able to see when I tap space bar as my recording software doesn't show the keys pressed), you can see when using the circle marquee selection I was able to select both eyes.
