I am trying to open somebody's eyes in Photoshop by copying his open eyes from another photo and pasting them into the photo I need. The problem is the shades are different and I don't know how  I can handle that. I think that's an easy question for advanced Photoshop users. I attach both photos. Thanks for help in advance!

And in my opinion you clipped the placed eye too close.

Clipping Mask the appropriate Adjustment Layer/s to the pasted Layer and apply a Layer Mask to it.

Thank you for so fast response! I am a noobie in color adjustments, never used clipping masks, could you explain it step by step?
