After wasting :30 trying to find this answer, I'm out.  Everything's referencing old versions of Photoshop and none of the buttons are the same.  I need to remove white eye on a PERSON. I'm a total novice, so screenshots, videos, etc would be helpful. Thanks.

It sounds like you have never used Photoshop before. The interface between 2015 and 2019 is not different. Tutorials on YouTube make assumptions that you know some basics. I suggest you learn Photoshop. Lynda.com / Linked in Learning is a great place to start. If you right click on the magic wand tool, you will find the quick selection tool. I teach Photoshop and other Adobe apps, it's not an app you can just sit down and start playing with on your own and Youtube is spotty. Here is a list of places to learn, some are free, some are not:

Thanks, Melissa. I took a class in 2015 but none of it stuck because I don't use PS all the time. And then the books they gave out for us to reference for future questions were all obsolete when PS kept updating. I do use it here and there but there are little things like this that I can't figure out.

You book should be still be useful, what was the book? I teach out of the Classroom in a Book series. They don't change much from version to version.

Here's the photo when I open it in PS. No idea what to do from here. All of the online tutorials are either for older versions of PS, or for red eye, not white eye:

At the small size you posted it’s hard to tell what can meaningfully be done, please post the part in fullres.

And the motion blur of the photograph itself might make a distinction of the iris impossible.

Step #1. "Find the quick select tool"

The Quick Select Tool and the Magic Wand Tool usually share a field, so click (an keep clicked) in the Magic Wand Tool to see and select the secondary Tool/s.

Hi Marie,

As you're trying to remove the White eye in Photoshop, it would be helpful if you can share a screenshot with us.

Could you please have a look at this video and see if it helps?

Hi, unfortunately that video doesn't help because it's for v2015 and I'm on v2019.  And I don't have a screenshot because I haven't done any steps yet because I don't know how to.  Thanks.
