The light has to go through the cornea, then the aqueous humor, then the lens, then the vitreous humor to finally hit the retina. Describing those different bodies inside using the rules you pointed to is a bit of a mind bender.

I will try again though, just for the sake of it, because I'm honestly not sure it would add anything to the end result. The different refraction indices inside are all fairly similar in the end.

Question though, when the light crosses multiple adjacent surfaces with the same IOR, does its trajectory stay the same or does it get increasingly deviated at each surface hit?
too complicated for me, this is a job for roeland :D
anyway i forgot to ask you how many polys for a single eye?
thanks for sharing, it's very interesting ;)

Thanks man! In fact,I have sculpted the Iris using his work as reference. I fully intend to push the level of detail to that quality ultimately. Ideally, I'd use displacement for the iris but for the time being, I'm satisfied with it.

Thanks! One eye is about 100K points I'd say. I could optimize greatly, without a doubt.

Very impressive, is it possible to show the node graph for you material selections.

These eyes look superb. Definitely the standard to aim for.

Regarding your question on multiple surfaces of same IOR, the do not affect the refraction at all. Refraction only occurs at the join between different IORs.

That's the science behind the disappearing test tube trick. Shown here.

Stunning work, I'm on a similar personal project, but here the eye meterials simulation is really impressive!

Really love the eyes, you talk about using gradients to control the colour? Could you make a video demonstration or a step by step how this is implemented in Octane? I have no idea how that works sadly. Also did you use any eye texture at all? Or was this purely sculpted?

Thank you. Everything is painted and sculpted by hand. I generally don't use photo in my work. I am still finishing a contract at the moment but I am scheduled to create and post a full tutorial soon. I will also publish objects and shaders. Promise.

Hey man, np np, just happy you're actually making one. Looking forward to seeing it. Nice sculpting btw, I would have thought you would use a texture based on the detail level. I plan on doing a portrait soon but I don't think I need to get into that great of detail. Can't wait to see the materials though :3
