Is this in the preview pane or when you actually render the image?

Which figure are you using?

Hi,
 This is when it has been rendered, if you like i can try and load a link to the picture here.

If you could that may help.

Also, is this a pre-made character you are using or is it one you have set up yourself?

Ahhhhh, when you said they went all white I thought you meant that they were entirely white with no iris or pupil showing (I've had that in the past thanks to losing transparency on the cornea).

It could be a lack of detailing on the actual eye map that leads to them looking all white or, as you said, you may need to adjust your lighting so that it doesn't shine straight into her eyes as it seems to here and so washes the texture out.

The lighting in Poser and D|S are poles apart, the same principles apply to all lighting but it does behave substantially differently in Poser.

I would recommend searching the free stuff here for some light sets and then you can get more of an idea how it works in Poser.

No problems - best of luck with it.  

Lighting is one of the hardest things and I tend to start with a set up by someone - if you're thinking of buying a set I recommend Saintfox's lights or the Lightworks series at Runtime DNA - and then adjust them and add to and take way to suit my needs.

check the ambient and alternate diffuse channels on those eyes.
