7.2.4. Removing Red Eye
In some cameras, the proximity of the flash to the lens causes the light from the flash to reflect from the subject's retina to the lens, leaving a red eye mark on the image. Referred to as a red eye, the size of the mark depends on the amount of light reflected. F-Spot Photo Manager software can be used to remove the red eye from images.
