i have the Photoshop 7WOW! book and CD, which comes with a bunch of tool presets (which can be recreated manually and saved by any photoshop user who knows how incidentally) and i find that a two or three step process produces flawless results on most ocasions (i say most but actually i have had 100% success using this process so far)
i have therefore briefly described the process for someone who does not have access to these red-eye tool presets
this red-eye removal process can be done in earlier versions of PS, as well as CS
________________________________________________
step 1: using a paintbrush slightly smaller than the red portion of the eye, choose ‘saturation’ mode and a grey colour, and paint out the red/pink colour
step 2: using the same sized brush, choose ‘darken’ mode and black colour, and lower the opacity somewhat to make the job easier, and paint over the pupil area – IF the pupil region is grey after step 1 rather than black
step 3: using a low-ish opacity and choosing whatever colour the iris SHOULD have been (ie green, blue, brown), paint over the iris region with the brush mode once again set to ‘colour’ until the eye colour looks natural ________________________________________________
hope this small lesson is useful to some of you

I have been using PS 7.01 and just upgraded to CS. However, I have been using the Red Eye tool in PS Elements. Is there any on-line tutorials
about
Red Eye removal using the tools in PS-CS that anyone feels are good?
(Yes
I
realize that a search engine might find some but I want some opinions on which the people here have used – or their techniques.)
Thanks
I happened to search this group on Google the other day and Red Eye came
up
… and up. Try it for many, many opinions — none of which I remember.
