>I have a 12 megapixel camera in my phone
I am sorry, but megapixels do not a good camera make.
My Fuji X100 (35mm prime) and Nikon D200 (50mm prime), the latter from over a decade ago, both easily produce clear pictures in eye reflections when the light is good.
That said -- have you actually tried?
I just took a selfie with my MotoG5s front camera, and I can see a face from my FB feed reflected in my eye. And that's in crappy office lighting, from a screen with brightness turned down to minimize strain!
>Or even any staged photo you have or can take
To re-iterate: it is ridiculously easy to take such a photo with a real camera with decent lens. Modern cell phone cameras are capable as well if the light is good.
Here's a non-attempt: just a crop from the selfie I took
