4. After Red-eye correction is complete, you can use the
Playback zoom in button to zoom in on the image to see
how well it worked. Zoom back out with the checkered
Thumbnail/playback zoom out button.

My Recommendation: I’ve found that the Red-eye
correction function works pretty well as long as the subject is
fairly large in the frame. The lovely young lady in Figure 6-4,
image 4, had serious red-eye in the original image. That gives
you an idea of how large in the frame the subject will have to
be for this function to work well.
I have tried it on smaller subjects—where there are larger
groups of people—and it sometimes works and other times
doesn’t. When the subject is smaller, the eyes are much
smaller too. The camera may struggle to find the red-eye in
very tiny pictures. I’ve had it correct one eye that was closer
to the camera (larger) and not the other. I would rate this
function as helpful, but not always completely effective.
On larger subjects (close-ups) it does well, but on smaller
ones, sometimes not so well. However, it’s a good function to
have for quick Red-eye correction on critical images you need
to use immediately.
