How to Fix Red Eye on Any photos on iPhones or iPads?

It was a great moment to capture a photo, you took out your iPhone or iPad for a picture. Suddenly you see a red eye on everyone’s face. One might think that this might happen at night, but this happens multiple times and you don’t know why Red Eye is appearing and how to fix the Red Eye issue on any photos on your iPhone or iPad.

You may see a red light generally when a flashlight appears on your face. This may be due to too much light in a room or your iPhone flashlight may have created some glare on the picture. However, there are some workarounds that you should try to fix the issue completely.

There are three ways which we have discussed here:

  • Edit the photos using your iPhone or iPad only.
  • Fix the Red eye issue on photos using Apps on Play Store or Apple Store.
  • Using Online Free Tools to remove the Red Eye on the existing photo, and customize it.

You may use free or paid version apps too, but we have discussed some of the free tools available for the Red Eye issue fix.

To fix the Red Eye issue, make sure that you have turned off the flash of your camera. Or you may retake a picture if possible. However Red Eye may occur without flash also; you may try the below method to fix it completely:
