How it works

Upload your photo

Upload a clear, front-facing portrait. Good lighting on the face and visible facial features give the AI the best foundation for closed eyes editing. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Simple portraits with good lighting: 20-25 seconds for natural open eyes. Group photos or challenging angles: may need 2-3 refinements for perfect eye matching.
Describe who needs eyes opened

Type your instruction: 'open the closed eyes of the woman on the left' or 'fix squinting eyes for the person in the blue shirt, make them look at camera.' Be specific about which person if there are multiple faces. The AI identifies the person and reconstructs natural-looking open eyes.

Tip: Include gaze direction for better results: 'looking at camera' or 'looking forward' helps the AI match the rest of the group's eye direction.

Generate and review

Click Generate and watch the AI open the eyes naturally. Check that eye color, size, and gaze direction match the person's appearance and the photo's context. The AI preserves facial features and eye characteristics.
Refine if needed

If eyes need adjustment, refine your prompt: 'make eyes look slightly more to the right' or 'eyes should be looking at camera like others in the group.' Most fixes work perfectly on the first try.

Tip: For group photos, mention what direction others are looking: 'match the gaze direction of others in the photo' helps create consistency.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Photo Rescue & Restoration

Revive old, damaged, or poorly-shot photos with AI closed eyes — bring new life to images you thought were unsalvageable.

Common Scenarios

Applying closed eyes to old family photos that have degraded over time
Fixing a once-in-a-lifetime shot (wedding, graduation) that suffers from poor quality
Using closed eyes on scanned prints to get crisp digital versions

Best Practices

Scan old photos at the highest DPI your scanner supports before uploading for best results
Describe the specific issue — 'this photo is too dark and blurry' gives better closed eyes than a generic prompt
For severely damaged photos, work in stages: fix the biggest issue first, then refine

📷

Professional & Business Use

Ensure photos for websites, presentations, and marketing meet professional standards with closed eyes.

Common Scenarios

Using closed eyes on employee photos for a company website that need to look polished
Applying closed eyes to event photos before sharing in a client presentation
Improving product images with closed eyes for an online store or catalog

Best Practices

Process all images in a batch with the same enhancement settings for visual consistency
For web use, balance enhancement quality with file size — overly large images slow page loads
Always compare before and after to make sure closed eyes looks natural, not over-processed

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong person's eyes

Why: Multiple people in the photo made person identification ambiguous.

Try:

Be very specific with identifiers: 'the woman on the far left wearing red', 'the child in the center', or 'the man with glasses on the right'

Try This →

Tip: Use both position and distinctive features (clothing color, accessories) to identify the exact person clearly.

Generated eyes don't match the person's appearance

Why: Poor lighting or low resolution made it hard for the AI to infer eye color and characteristics.

Try:

Use a higher quality photo with better facial lighting. Add 'maintain natural brown eye color' or specify eye characteristics if visible elsewhere

Try This →

Tip: Front-lit faces work best. Extreme side lighting or shadows make accurate eye reconstruction difficult.

Eyes are looking in the wrong direction

Why: The AI didn't have enough context about where the person should be looking.

Try:

Specify gaze explicitly: 'looking directly at camera', 'looking at the person next to them', or 'match the gaze of others in the group'

Try This →

Tip: In group photos, mention 'looking same direction as everyone else' for natural consistency.

Only one eye opened when both were closed

Why: The prompt wasn't explicit about both eyes needing correction.

Try: State 'open both eyes fully' rather than just 'open eyes' to ensure complete correction

Try This →

Tip: Be explicit about 'both' when both eyes need work, even though it seems obvious.

Eyes look too wide or surprised

Why: The AI interpreted 'open eyes' as maximum eye opening.

Try:

Add 'naturally open' or 'relaxed open eyes' to prevent overly wide results. Try 'normal eye opening' for more natural look

Try This →

Tip: Words like 'alert' or 'fully' can create wide eyes. Use 'natural' or 'relaxed' for calmer expressions.

Face looks slightly different after eye correction

Why: Very low resolution or heavily compressed photos provide limited facial detail for accurate reconstruction.

Try:

Use the highest quality version of your photo available. The AI needs clear facial features to preserve appearance while opening eyes

Try This →

Tip: Original camera files work better than compressed social media downloads or screenshots.

Eyes opened but person is wearing glasses

Why: Glasses add complexity with lens reflections and visible eye positioning.

Try:

Mention the glasses explicitly: 'open eyes for the person wearing glasses, maintain natural look through lenses and reflections'

Try This →

Tip: The AI handles glasses well when you mention them, accounting for lens effects and frame shadows.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the closed eyes before fixing them?

No! Just describe who needs eye correction: 'open the closed eyes of the woman on the left' or 'fix squinting eyes.' The AI automatically detects faces and identifies who you mean. Only specify which person if there are multiple people in the photo.

How do I fix closed eyes in a photo for free?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic, describe who has closed eyes (like 'open the man's eyes on the right, looking at camera'), and click Generate. The AI reconstructs natural-looking open eyes automatically. No Photoshop or manual editing required. Free to try with no signup.

Will the opened eyes look natural or obviously fake?

When you include gaze direction in your prompt (like 'looking at camera' or 'match others' gaze'), the AI creates convincing open eyes that match the person's face and the photo's context. The key is good photo quality and clear facial visibility. Well-lit front-facing photos produce the most natural results.

Can I fix closed eyes in group photos and wedding photos?

Yes! Specify which person needs correction: 'fix closed eyes for the person in the blue dress' or 'open the groom's eyes.' The AI can fix specific individuals in group photos while leaving others unchanged. Perfect for rescuing important photos where someone blinked.

Does it work if someone is squinting or has half-closed eyes?

Absolutely. Describe what you need: 'fix squinting, make eyes fully open' or 'open half-closed eyes naturally.' The AI handles everything from mid-blink to bright-sun squinting. Squinting from sunlight is actually easier than fully closed eyes because some eye detail is visible.

What's the best free AI tool for fixing closed eyes in photos?

EditThisPic offers free AI-powered eye correction with no signup, no watermark, and no download required. Unlike manual photo editing that requires reconstructing eyes from scratch, EditThisPic's AI understands facial features and creates natural-looking open eyes automatically. Perfect for group photos, wedding pictures, and family portraits where blinking ruined the moment.

Is EditThisPic's AI closed eyes fixer really free?

Yes — you get 1 free edit per week, no account needed. For unlimited edits, plans start at $3.99/month.

What photo formats does the AI closed eyes fixer support?

JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC. Upload any common photo format and EditThisPic handles the rest.
