If I may give my layman's critique on how the lights look in the eyes. In the first one, I see several small lights like maybe several small bulbs. The second looks like several casement windows. The third has a flat panel of light. About the only place that you might see is a photography studio. The fourth has a faint bar of light like maybe a dim fluorescent tube. The next looks like windows in the same place as the fluorescent light. the final one again has panel lights again like in a studio. All have lights reflected, or light from the environment

yes, you are correct on all of those. They all use the background HDRI "object" to light the scene except for the last one that is using area lights. it's mostly about how the lacrimal looks not about the eye.
