What is the best way you know to get rid of red eye using Photoshop? I'm trying to get rid of some severe red eye in a few pictures of mine, but can't make it look authentic. I'm assuming there is a better way than just adjusting the color balance, but I just don't know it.

Thanks for any help.

Give us a sample. It can depend on how bad the redeye is. Plus the environment around can also determine how to do it.

Use the sponge-tool, put on desaturation. Play around a little and experiment with settings. This should take care of most "red-eyes".

Select the portion of the eye that is red with the circle tool, then hold down the shift key to select the red part of the other eye. The go to Hue & Saturation, select red, then desaturate it. The red is now gone. You can then shift the hue to make it whatever color you want.

Yes, this also works with my method. (Why didn't I think of it?) You'll get the best results if you apply my method to the Red channel only. (View -> Channels)
