Abstract: Systems and methods of detecting and correcting redeye in an image are described. In one aspect, the input image is sub-sampled to generate a thumbnail image, redeye pixel areas are detected in the thumbnail image. In another aspect, an input image having lines of pixels with original color values is processed. One or more redeye pixel areas corresponding to respective areas in the input image are detected. Each pixel in the input image corresponding to the detected redeye pixel areas is classified as a redeye pixel or a non-redeye pixel on a line-by-line basis without reference to pixels in adjacent lines. The original color values of pixels in the input image classified as redeye pixels are corrected.
