Reflection in pupil of human eye could reveal the things a person sees
By Les Shu — December 30, 2013
What if you could identify the photographer of an image or locate the place the photo was taken by zooming into the pupil of a subject’s eye? Sounds like science fiction (in fact, an episode of Doctor Who somewhat explored this idea), but research from the Department of Psychology at the University of York demonstrates that it’s possible, and could aid law enforcement authorities in forensic sciences, according to KurzweilAI. The study, titled “Identifiable Images of Bystanders Extracted from Corneal Reflections,” was published in the scientific journal, PLOS ONE.

I had a closer look at some of my pictures and can't see this type reflection in the eyes of the persons in the photos. Does anybody see it in his pictures?

I can see it in the photos I take, pupil reflections are usually quite sharp and that's zooming in on a normal HD display. My camera doesn't have a low-pass filter (anti-aliasing filter) so the images include a lot of fine detail.
