A friend of mine actually owns camera light that Nykvist used. It looks like its handmade. Its constructed of a light bulb in one end of a rectangular box, in the other end is lamell curtain, that can dim down the ligth while keeping the correct color temperature.

My guess is that he used that light and kept it at the same dimmed down level all the time. Just enough to get the glimmering the eye, but not effecting the rest of the face much. A dimmable led light would have the same effect.
