ABSTRACT:
The method sets a region to be subjected to red eye correction for red eye designation when a red eye in an image that has been produced in shooting is corrected into an eye having a pupil of a specified color. This setting method automatically extracts only the red eye from a first region including the red eye which has preliminarily been designated by an operator or automatically and sets a second region to be subjected to red eye correction for correcting a color of the pupil into the specified color of the pupil. If only the red eye can not automatically be extracted, the setting method sets the second region by designating only the red eye by the operator manually. The red eye correcting method converts the second region thus set by the above setting method into the eye having the pupil of said specified color to correct the red eye. Therefore, the setting method and the red eye correcting method are capable of greatly enhancing the operative efficiency and the quality of the image subjected to red eye correction.
