How To Remove Green Eye In An Image

Green Eye In A Photo

This tutorial will teach you how to remove green eye in pictures. Green eye commonly occurs in dogs and cats. This picture of a dog needs to be edited because the dog’s eyes appear green due to an effect the camera flash has on animals’ eyes. I will use the polygonal lasso tool, the sponge tool, the burn tool and the blur tool.

Step 1: Open Adobe Photoshop and import the image you wish to edit.

Step 2: Use the zoom tool to zoom in closer on the dogs’ eyes.
