Question about using Macro Ring Flash on Canon R7

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a Nissin MF18 Ring Flash for my Canon R7, specifically for my Sigma 100mm macro lens. I am using it primarily to photograph snakes, but also other reptiles and invertebrates. I am fairly new to macro photography and I have been noticing that I am getting quite a lot of lens reflection, particularly in the eyes of pythons. I purchased a polarizing filter for my lens today, but I doubt that will be enough. Do you have any recommendations? Will I need to construct something? Or are there more optimal settings for the flash that I am not utilizing? Thanks!

Canon EOS R7
