How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your portrait or selfie into EditThisPic. Works best with front-facing photos where sunglasses are clearly visible. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Standard sunglasses removal: 20-30 seconds. Complex reflective or oversized sunglasses: may need 2-3 refinements to perfect eye appearance.
Describe what you want

Type your instruction: 'remove the sunglasses and show the eyes' or 'eliminate the shades and reveal natural eyes.' No marking needed—the AI understands 'sunglasses' and automatically reveals the eyes underneath while matching skin tone and facial structure.

Tip: For best results, specify 'natural eyes' or 'open eyes' to guide the AI toward realistic eye reconstruction.

Generate and review

Click Generate and watch the AI remove sunglasses while reconstructing natural-looking eyes. Zoom to full resolution to check that eye color, shape, and alignment look natural. The AI infers eye appearance from facial features and skin tone.
Refine with markers if needed

If the eye shape or position needs adjustment, tap markers on the specific areas and regenerate with a refined prompt like 'adjust eye shape to be rounder' or 'make eyes more open.' This is optional—most removals work on first try.

Tip: Markers help fine-tune eye appearance, not required. Try your description first before adding markers.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Professional Photography

Remove unwanted sunglasses from professional photo shoots, client deliverables, and stock photography to achieve clean, polished results.

Common Scenarios

Client portrait sessions where the sunglasses appeared unexpectedly in frame
Stock photography that needs the sunglasses removed for broader commercial appeal
Product photography with distracting sunglasses in the background

Best Practices

Zoom in and place a marker directly on the sunglasses for the most accurate removal
Run a second pass if any faint outlines or shadows remain after the first edit
Describe the desired background fill — e.g., 'replace the sunglasses with clean wall' for predictable results

📷

Real Estate & Property Listings

Clean up property photos by removing sunglasses that distract buyers and lower perceived home value.

Common Scenarios

Listing photos where the sunglasses clutters the frame and makes rooms look smaller
Exterior shots with sunglasses that hurt curb appeal
Open house photos that need the sunglasses removed before uploading to MLS

Best Practices

Shoot the space first, then edit — AI removal works better than awkward staging workarounds
After removing the sunglasses, check that floor lines and wall edges still look straight
Process all listing photos in one session so lighting and style stay consistent

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or removed glasses frames instead of just lenses

Why: The AI may interpret 'remove sunglasses' as removing the entire glasses including frames. Or if the person wears prescription glasses underneath, it may confuse the two.

Try:

Tap markers on the lens areas specifically, then try: 'replace the dark lenses with clear eyes, keep the frame if needed'

Try This →

Tip: Be explicit if you want frames gone: 'remove sunglasses completely' versus 'reveal eyes behind sunglasses.'

Revealed eyes look unnatural or mismatched

Why: The AI has to infer eye appearance from limited context. Eye color, shape, or expression may not perfectly match the person's actual eyes.

Try: Specify eye characteristics: 'show brown eyes, almond shape, looking directly at camera' for more control

Try This →

Tip: If you have another photo of the person without sunglasses, use it as a reference image to guide eye appearance.

Eye position or alignment looks off

Why: The AI may position eyes slightly too high, too low, or not aligned with the nose bridge, especially with oversized or tilted sunglasses.

Try: adjust eye position to align with nose bridge and be centered in the sockets

Try This →

Tip: Check alignment by looking at the nose bridge - eyes should align naturally with it. Use markers to indicate correct position.

Skin tone around eyes doesn't match the rest of face

Why: Sunglasses create a tan line in real life, but in photos the AI may not perfectly match the concealed skin tone to visible areas.

Try: blend the skin tone around the eyes to match the surrounding face, no tan lines

Try This →

Tip: Specify 'even skin tone' or 'no tan lines' to ensure consistent coloring across the face.

Eyes look too open, too closed, or wrong expression

Why: The AI inferred eye openness from the face, but may not match the smile intensity or head angle perfectly.

Try: adjust the eyes to show natural expression matching the smile, slightly narrowed for genuine smile

Try This →

Tip: Real smiles narrow the eyes slightly. If the smile is wide, specify 'eyes slightly squinted from smiling.'

Reflective sunglasses removed but eyes still have glare or odd reflections

Why: The AI saw the mirror lenses and may have incorporated the reflections into the revealed eyes incorrectly.

Try: remove all glare and reflections from the eyes, show natural eyes with no mirror effects

Try This →

Tip: For very reflective sunglasses, emphasize 'no reflections' or 'clear eyes' in your prompt.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the sunglasses before describing?

No! Just describe what you want: 'remove the sunglasses and show the eyes.' The AI understands where sunglasses are on faces and removes them automatically. Only use markers if you need to refine eye position or shape after the initial removal.

What's the best AI tool for removing sunglasses from photos?

Unlike simple blur or clone tools, the AI understands facial structure and creates eyes that match your skin tone, face shape, and expression.

Will the revealed eyes look realistic or obviously edited?

The AI infers eye appearance from your facial features, skin tone, and expression. In most cases, the revealed eyes look natural and believable.
