How do you stop the eyelash reflection in the eyes?

I'm getting floating eyelash reflection off the eyes in my renders. It's detracting as it's covering half the iris.

How do I stop that from happening?

    Hi Basis. Going to ask this- could it be your lighting angle? I had severe shadows one time with the eyelashes below the eye, on the cheek, and I had to change my lighting from above. So perhaps tweak your lights (and set the shadows in Parameter tab to ultra soft, say 70% or more.) Do you think that would help?

    Ah, that's why I only have the Eyelash reflection problem sometime. Usually i put some softness in the shadow but I put in a temporary distant light source to do a few test renders and didn't bother with that.

    Turned out, turning on shadow softness as little as 10 to 15% was enough to blur out or defuse the eyelash reflection entirely (at least with my eye surface settings.) Didn't need to move the lighting at all. Although that did work too.

    Thanks for the suggestion!

    You're welcome. :)
    And if you ever use light presets, check the shadow settings on each light. Some of them aren't even turned on, others aren't set high enough, etc.
