I am too felt the right eye (left on the painting) needs some work, exactly the way described by Steven. But don't try to do it without the sitter re-pose for you, the color should not be the same as on the other eye, and can be any imaginary color due to the angle which light refract thru the lens and complicated by the reflection of iris.

The rest is fine to me, well balanced composition, forms and colors, show that painterly expression.

This will be your milestone painting, so move on do another one quick, don't stop.
