I am using the very light green/white eye for the prop I am building. Cut the pupils out of the printed sheet of paper. I took a Sharpie and rimmed the outside edge of the pupils to give it a dark ring. The model I am basing my prop on had that dark ring on her light eyes. I think it looks pretty good. Place the cut-out pupils into the hole in the eye and pop the cornea back in place.
For my eyes, the cornea didn't quite reset back in place and so I didn't trust that they were gonna stay in there. I got out some of my thinned clear gloss medium paint and carefully painted a rim of the gloss paint around the edge of the cornea and the white of the eye to hold it in place. I guess you could try glue too. I was afraid of doing that in case it hazed out the cornea.
This picture also shows the final paint job I did to get the clear part of the eyes more white and more shiny.
