How to remove red eye from photos in Windows 11?
Microsoft Word and PowerPoint are built-in Office applications equipped with basic picture editing functions that you can use to remove red eye in photos, yet their retouch precision is far lower than dedicated professional photo editing software.
Instructions: Insert your target photo via the Insert > Pictures menu, select the imported image to open the Picture Format tab at the top of the window, click Corrections and locate the Red Eye Removal option, then click each red eye area on the photo for automatic correction; right-click the edited picture and select Save as Picture to export it as an independent JPG file.
Its advantages include no extra software installation required as Office is pre-installed on most Windows PCs, straightforward one-click red eye correction operation, and support for exporting modified photos separately without overwriting the original image.
Its drawbacks include low correction accuracy compared with specialized editors, lack of adjustable parameters to optimize natural eye color effects, and the Red Eye Removal function hidden deep inside submenus which is hard for new users to find quickly.
This allows you to simply remove red eye in photos without downloading third-party editing tools. It is suitable for casual users who already own the Microsoft Office suite and only need temporary simple red eye fixes for daily snapshot images.
