Unless you want eyes that look like headlights, putting the lights inside the eyes will not likely produce an effect like on the Stargate program.
Using Poser 7, I made this render by setting the Ambient_Value of eyewhite and iris to 4.000 for both eyes, and making the Ambient_Color very very dark yellow. I also made the Diffuse_Color of the Irii a light blue so that they would show up when I lighted them from outside. Finally, I changed the Diffuse_Color of the pupils to medium red. This work is done in the Material Room.
To light the eyes, I made two point-lights with Dist Start - 0.001, Dist End - 0.025, Intensity - 85%, and Scale 25%. These lights were placed in front of the eyes and a little toward the outside corner of the eye. Move them around until they give you the effect you want. Adjust the color etc. to get the right look. Create these lights then change them to Point-lights on the Properties tab, and change the Parameters listed above on the Parameters tab. These lights can be parented to the head, though that altered the scale, and I had to rescale them again.
