  The best sharpening technique I've found is to (in PS) duplicate the image layer and apply the High Pass filter (filter > other > high pass). Use enough to show the important edges without adding a halo. Then set the layer to "overlay" and adjust the opacity.

  Regardless of what you are starting with, you'll see an improvement using these steps.

  Other post recipes, such as varying steps of dodging and burning, will contribute to exceptional results when trying to emphasize the eyes.
