Frequently asked questions
- What causes red-eye in photos?
- Red-eye occurs when flash light reflects off the blood vessels at the back of the eye (retina). It is most common in low-light conditions when pupils are dilated, and when the flash is close to the lens (like on phone cameras).
- Does it work on pet photos with glowing eyes?
- The tool is optimized for human red-eye. Pet eye glow (which is often green or yellow due to the tapetum lucidum) requires different correction and may not be fully addressed.
- Can I fix red-eye in a group photo with many people?
- Yes. The AI detects all faces and eyes in the image and corrects each red-eye instance individually.
