In this image the catch light is not distacting. If were to view at high mag you may think otherwise but then any correction would probably make it worse.

As you are now playing with your new toys I mention it as some thing to look for, and be aware of at the time you are taking the pictures.

The greater the quality of an image the more lack of attention to small details will show.

You would be amazed at what the viewers eye can record, and yours not, without you being aware. I have seen some portraits that the photographer took with a ring light as an easy solution to shadow free light. Very high quality printing and super presentation, he was dead chuffed. For all the effort he put in he did not look at the eyes. The ring flash effect was quite disturbing.

Said nothing !!
