How it works

  1. Upload Your Photo

    Drop your image with glare problems into EditThisPic. Works on glasses glare, screen reflections, flash spots, and shiny surface reflections. Supports JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple glare spots: 20-25 seconds. Multiple reflections or complex lighting: may need 2-3 refinements.

  2. Describe What You Want

    Type your instruction: 'remove the glare from the glasses and show clear eyes' or 'remove the flash reflection and reveal the skin texture.' Be specific about what's causing the glare. No marking needed—the AI understands glare as bright spots that obscure details.

    Tip: Mention what should be visible: 'show clear eyes' or 'reveal natural skin tone' for better reconstruction

  3. Review and Download

    Check the result at full zoom to ensure glare is completely removed and the revealed area looks natural. Eye color and skin texture should match the rest of the photo. Download in full resolution.

  4. Refine with Markers if Needed

    If glare edges remain or the AI missed smaller reflections, tap markers on those spots and regenerate. This is optional—most glare removals work without markers.

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement, not a required step. Try without them first.

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or removed something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which bright spots you meant from description alone. This happens in photos with multiple light sources or reflections.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific glare spot you want to remove, then regenerate with the same prompt
Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS reflection specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Eyes look unnatural or wrong color after glare removal

Why: The AI had to infer eye color and details when glare completely obscured them. It guessed based on surrounding context.

Try: Try 'remove glare and show brown eyes' (or blue, green, etc.) to specify eye color
Try This →

Tip: If one eye is visible without glare, the AI can match it to the other eye

Skin texture looks blurry where glare was removed

Why: The glare completely washed out texture information, making reconstruction difficult.

Try: Add 'matching the surrounding skin texture' to your prompt for better blending
Try This →
Glare edges still faintly visible

Why: Soft-edged glare or gradient reflections can leave subtle halos that need refinement.

Try: Use 'remove all glare including soft edges and halos' for complete elimination
Try This →
Glasses lenses look too dark or opaque

Why: The AI overcompensated when removing glare, making lenses less transparent.

Try: Try 'remove glare while keeping glasses transparent' for more natural results

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the glare before describing?

No! Just describe what you want: 'remove the glare from the glasses' or 'remove the flash glare.' The AI understands glare as bright spots and reflections that obscure details. Only use markers when you have multiple bright areas and need to specify which one, or when refining edges after your first attempt.

How do I remove glare from glasses in photos for free?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic, type 'remove the glare from the glasses and show clear eyes,' then download. Free to use, no account required, no watermark. Works on most glasses glare from flash or bright lighting.

Can it reconstruct eyes hidden by glare?

Yes, but results depend on how much information is available. If one eye is visible, the AI can match it. If both eyes are completely hidden, it will infer eye color and details from context. For best results, mention eye color in your prompt if both eyes are obscured.

Will it work on all types of glare?

Works best on camera flash glare, glasses reflections, screen glow, and bright window reflections. Natural lens flare or artistic light effects may be harder to distinguish from intentional lighting. The AI needs context to determine what's unwanted glare versus desired lighting.

What's the best free tool to remove glare from photos?

EditThisPic's AI Glare Remover is free, requires no signup, and intelligently removes reflections while reconstructing what's underneath. Unlike basic exposure adjustments, it understands glare patterns and can restore obscured details.
