 Cropped, auto-levels, Hue/saturation (colourize, very saturated, very light). Adjust levels manually (remove lighter tones), Hue/saturation again (set final hue, darker). Unsharp Mask, and there you have it.
May be too digital art for some, but I really like this. Almost like a drawing...
Getting the contact lens in focus is pretty tricky when you're pointing the camera at yourself in macro mode out of the corner of your eye!

I really like the harsh lighting to this one. Interesting choice to colorize it. I like this one

WOW!!!! Incredible photo - I'm not crazy about the Photoshop-py effects you have used, but the overall idea is a killer!! 9

The tone is interesting, and the image is sharp. I think that it would have been better to have positioned yourself without the distracting reflections in your eye. The curves of your eye do make for an interesting take on "round". And I like the way the border sort of fades out of the left-top portion of the shot.

Not sure about the blue coloring but I like it nevertheless, it adds a new twist to the eye photos. Very nice idea.
