The main problem with the image is an inversion of the normal brightness
relationships between pupil and iris. The pupil may also appear too
large as a result of the contact lens but that's difficult to say.
I fixed it by simply painting over the pupil leaving only the small
highlight as white. Pure black never looks right for the pupil so I
chose a near black, dark gray that was half way between the darkest gray
in the iris and pure black. The painting could be done more carefully
than I have done it but I'll leave that up to you.
To see the full progression from original to "after" and "after#2" click
on the three links in succession and then use the back and forward
buttons on your browser to step quickly between them. (I don't know the
overlay HTML tricks either but this works fairly well)
