You don't!
Make a selection round the iris; create a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, and play with the hue slider.
That's a quick and dirty method, there are plenty of other ways.

Photoshop CS3 Red Eye Removal Tool

I cannot find the red eye removal tool on the main screen of Photoshop CS3. Where can I find it? I am using Windows XP.

Click and hold the Healing Brush tool (band Aid/sticking plaster icon; 6th
from top in single column view, 4th from top LHS in 2 column view)
http://www.lunacore.com/photoshop/tutorials/tut030.htm
All buttons on the PS toolbar with a tiny black arrow in the bottom RHS of
the button have other buttons tucked in behind them. Click and hold the
button to reveal the extra buttons.

Question: Regarding Red Eye Removal Tool

I'm using Lightroom Version 1.4.1 on a Mac OS X 10.5.6. When I activated the Red Eye Removal tool, I noticed that the Pupil Size and Darken sliders did not appear on the Toolbar to the right of the Red Eye Tool icon. All that appeared was a written instruction to "Drag from the center of the eye or click to use current size." Just to check, I then downloaded and installed a trial of Lightroom Version 2.3 without linking it my previously installed Version 1.4.1, but the sliders still did not appear, only the above written instruction. I do note that the sliders do appear on the Camera Raw plug-in for my Photoshop CS3. Has anyone else had this same problem and/or know how to correct this? It seems that a lot of people have been experiencing difficulties with the Lightroom Red Eye tool. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.

The sliders appear when you apply the tool, not just when you activate it.

Red-eye removal too dark

Is there a way in iPhoto to lighten the color that the red-eye removal tool uses to replace the red? On many photos the black is too dark and look unnatural. I can accomplish this in photoshop but I was trying to save some time by using iPhoto.
Thanks,
Randy

BUG: Red Eye Removal on JPGs + Auto commit to XMP

There seems to be a bug in 1.3.1 when using the Red Eye Removal tool on JPGs and auto commit metadata to file option is selected:
Can anyone confirm?
This is what I've written to Adobe in a bug report:
******BUG******
Concise problem statement:
When using "Red Eye Removal Tool" on jpgs and in File->Catalog Settings->Metadata the option "Automatically write changes into XMP" is selected this will end up in a loop reading and writing metadata. The picture is always in status: "checking metadata". "Metadata Date" of file is changing from time to time because Lightroom is always saving metadata to file (modified date of the jpg file itself also changes, so something is written to file).
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. in File->Catalog Settings->Metadata check option "Automatically write changes into XMP"
2. select a JPG picture and go to Develop Module
3. use the Red Eye Removal Tool
Results:
Endless loop by Lightroom trying to save this change into Metadata of JPG file
Expected results:
Either it is not possible to store this change in metadata: then don't touch the file.
Or it is possible, then this needs to be fixed so it is written/read correctly from file.

The red eye tool works by selecting the whole eye not just the pupil. If it still does not work try lightening or darkening the image to gaiain some more colour. If that does not work you can clone form one of the eyes that has worked.
Hope this helps you out.........

Red Eye removal tool bug

Hi everybody,
I have a big problem using the red eye removal tool:
When trying to select the area around the eye to correct, LR randomly creates a selection rectangle of a different size and at a different location.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Example:
+ I activate the red eye removal tool
+ I drag the cursor to create a selection around the red eye to correct, taking care to have the center of the rectangle more or less in the red area of the eye
+ Release the mouse button
+ the selection rectangle disappears for a split second and appears again at a different location, for example around the eye brow or somewhere under the eye in a 20-30 times smaller size than what I selected.
Is this a failed attempt of artificial intelligence to properly recognize the area to correct or simply a bug?
BTW. the file in question is a JPG, with 2 people, red eye correction worked fine on 3 of the eyes (selection rectangle stayed where I created it) and fails on every attempt on the fourth (LR restarted and so on).

The red eye tool works by selecting the whole eye not just the pupil. If it still does not work try lightening or darkening the image to gaiain some more colour. If that does not work you can clone form one of the eyes that has worked.
Hope this helps you out.........

Red eye removal in PS Touch?

Is there a dedicated tool for red eye removal in Photoshop touch? I've looked around and not found anything so far. I keep looking because I won't believe that such a common tool is not found in such a well-known, used, and respected photo editing software. It has to be somewhere! Thanks in advance.

Where to find to red eye removal icon?

on the left tool bar, there is no red eye removal icon. I did tried to click on the Spot Healing Brush tool , but still doesn't has red eye removal icon in it.

You should get a flyout menu with 4 options:

Could Lightroom's Red Eye Removal BE more useless?

Version 1.3 and we STILL cant have a red eye removal tool that works half as good as iPhoto's.
My goodness!

When it works, it works really well.
Issues:
It doesn't always detect the red eye.
It doesn't do well on "steel eye" or "green eye" on animals.
Sometimes it won't go dark enough, even on max.
There are workarounds for all three issues, and I've used every one of them.

Stuck in Red Eye Removal

Ok so I just got my Iphone4 last night and while a friend was looking at it. He went into the red eye removal function (on a photo of hands so there isn't any eyes). I've tried and tried but can't seem to get out of this function. It just keeps saying "tap each red eye. tap again to undo." and "did not find a red eye to correct."
Can someone please help this newbie!?!?!?

Force close the ‘Photos’ app and reopen it to see whether it resolves the issue. For that, first double tap the ‘Home’ button and wait until the task bar become visible on the screen. You can view all the recently opened apps on that bar. Locate the ‘Photos’ app by swiping the bar and holding down the app icon till it starts to wiggle. Then, tap over the minus sign appears on the left corner of the icon to close it. If this solution doesn’t work, reboot the iPad by making use of Sleep/Wake button. Press and hold that button until the iPad screen displays a red slider. Then, move the slider to turn off your iPad. Hold down that button again afterwards until you can view a sliver Apple Logo on the screen.

Red eye removal help please

I have a photo of 5 people all with red eye.
I went into quick edit for auto red eye removal and some peoples eyes became normal and others did not. Some would have one eye normal and the other red
I went in to the expanded version of editing and tried:
I expanded the view of a person's eyes, clicked on red eye icon then the person's eye - both were selected and one improved but the other did not.
I expanded the view of the eyes, clicked on the icon then on one pupil and it did not change.
What part am I missing.
I can't have people with one red eye and one normal.
I have played with the darkness of the eye and oddly enough, sometimes the darkness was on other parts of the body, like an ear.
I have played with the size of the pupil and that did not bring me positive results.
I have to be missing something and appreciate any suggestions.

For removing red eye manually,here is the steps i would follow:
Open your image in expert mode and make a rough selection around your red eye
Make a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer using the selection by clicking the icon shown in the figure or clicking Layer>New Adjustment Layer> Hue/Saturation
Change the channel to reds and use appropriate saturation and lightness value. I have used -100 for saturation and lightness
Use brush tool on the mask added to remove effect from any unwanted area

Red Eye removal for pets

Hi,
I'm using PE 4.0 and have been unable to get the red-eye removal tool to work with pet eye. I suspect it doesn't work because pets reflect yellow, green and even blue light instead of red. Is this a known limitation? Is there an alternative method in PE for removing pet eye?
Thanks,
Tom S.

Thanks for the tips. I searched for Wendy Williams' suggestions in the forum but haven't found them.
I've been experimenting with both of Mark's procedures in the meantime. Method 2 gave the best results when I modified it to preserve the glint in my pet's eyes. The modified Method 2 (using PE 4.0) is as follows.
1) Use Layer 1 to preserve the glint:
a) Select the background layer and use the magic wand tool to select the saturated white glint of each eye. I like the "add to the selection" option here - saves time. Copy the pixels selected and then turn off the selections (Select|Deselect).
b) Create a new layer (Layer 1, w/ defaults of normal blending and 100% opacity), select it and paste.
2) Use the brush tool as in your Method 2 to black out the pupils:
a) Create a new layer (Layer 2, w/ defaults of normal blending and 100% opacity) as the middle layer and select it.
b) Set foreground color to default black (or use the eyedropper tool to pickup a natural dark shade near the pupil from the Background Layer).
c) Paint over the pupil in Layer 2. Layer 1 should be over Layer 2 so that the glint is preserved despite the painting of Layer 2.
I did find a bug in PE 4.0 when doing this. In panning a zoomed picture from within the editor, I somehow got the layers to be out of sync with each other. When this happened I needed to start over.
A trick that doesn't work is to use Enhance|Adjust Color to change the pupils to red and then use the Auto Red Eye fix. What happens is that the tool does not recognize the color of animal eye irises and the tool changes them into pupils with disturbing results.

Red Eye removal - Green Eye removal

My subjects are mostly people on horses, and sometimes red eye removal is necessary and works fine. However, horses (as well as most other animals) have a differently colored retina, so I'd need a Green Eye Removal. Would it be possible to make the Red Eye Removal color-independent, or would it stop working then?
