Get Rid of Red Eye in Photoshop

Over the years, many people have written tutorials on fixing red eye in photos; in fact, CreativePro.com has published several! The various techniques have involved channels, brushes, sponges, selective color, and more. But did you know that since Photoshop CS2, there’s been a dedicated Red Eye tool? It’s hiding under the Spot Healing Brush on your toolbar.

In the very short video below, I’ll show you how easy it is to select the tool, then click and drag around an eye to remove any red.

    Would also be nice to have a blue eye tool for getting rid of those demon eyes in animal photos.
