What does the Eye Brighten effect change?

Eye Brighten identifies the relevant facial feature and applies a controllable cosmetic or corrective treatment aligned to its existing shape, light, and texture. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Eye Brighten?

Choose Eye Brighten for profile pictures with natural texture, mature-skin retouching, or professional headshots when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains obscured faces, extreme side angles, tiny group-photo faces, or sources where hair and background boundaries cannot be separated reliably.

About the Eye Brighten effect

Eye Brighten isolates the relevant portrait feature and applies a graduated local correction while protecting adjacent texture and geometry. Its intensity control blends the processed output with the uploaded pixels, so the edit can remain restrained or become the dominant look.
