Moth with light reflected in it's eyes - why?.



My wife has been trying out her new toy a ringflash, trying to photograph moths.
This one I think is a Silver Y but as you can see it has light reflecting in it's eyes - something that has not happened with other moths taken from a similar angle.

Does it suggest a trick of the camera or a more complex eye in this moth.

However how can she overcome this problem please and please keep any advice very simple as we are elderly and unfamiliar with technical terms. with computers or careras?.

Thank you,

Brian.
