Common glare-removal questions
How do I remove glasses glare from a photo?
Open the glasses glare page, add the portrait, and keep the correction inside the eyeglass lenses. A lower strength can remove glare from glasses while preserving natural lens detail.
Can the same page remove sunlight, flash, mirror, nail, and water glare?
Each page is tailored to a different surface or light source. Choose sunlight glare, flash glare, mirror glare, nail glare, or water glare to match your photo, then review the result carefully.
Can completely hidden details be recovered?
If strong glare covers details that the camera never captured, a photo edit cannot reliably recover the original detail. Adobe explains how clipping loses image detail ↗.
