IT Home October 20 news: Adobe announced yesterday that the Lightroom mobile photo editing app now supports the “Open Eyes” AI editing feature, allowing users to fix closed eyes in photos with just one tap.
IT Home has learned that Adobe previously offered a similar feature in Photoshop Elements, but it simply extracted eyes from another photo of the same person to replace them, so the repair results were sometimes not ideal.
By contrast, the “Open Eyes” feature in Lightroom mobile uses generative AI, so the replaced eyes can match the photo's lighting and the person's pose. The system also selects other photos of the same person in the Lightroom photo library as references, ensuring the generated eyes match the person in color, size, and shape.
