A fullerene graph is a 3-connected, planar cubic graph where each face is either pentagonal or hexagonal. This paper investigates the symmetric division eccentric index (\textit{SDE}) of fullerenes, particularly focusing on two infinite classes $F_{10n}$ and $F_{12n}$. We establish several bounds for fullerene graphs. We also explore the automorphism group actions on the vertices and edges of these fullerene graphs, establishing a relation between edge orbits and their eccentricities. General formulas for calculating \textit{SDE}-indices are derived for $F_{10n}$, when $n \geq 8$ and $F_{12n}$, when $n \geq 10$. Furthermore, we present a new approach to compute the \textit{SDE}-index and then implement the method to obtain general formulas for the \textit{SDE}-index of the given classes of fullerenes.
