Learn a range of tips to improve your images on our beginner’s Adobe Photoshop course.

This is an easy, quick and effective technique to get rid of any red eye you may encounter whilst working in photoshop:

Next to the dodge and burn tools there is a button called the sponge tool,

Firstly select this option and then set the desaturation level to about 50% or, if you prefer, another percentage, although 50 is the safest.

What you then need to do is to select the correct sized brush, this should be about as large as your figure’s pupil, but make sure that it is no bigger.

Then, after you have done this, all that remains to be done is to simply click on the pupil of your subject until you are satisfied that the red eye is sufficiently gone.

And there you have it, a simple and easy way to reduce red eye.
