Learn how to change the eye color of anyone you desire.

Step 1: First find the photo you would like to use.


Step 2: Create a new layer above everything, and name this layer "Eye."


Step 3: Make sure you have the "Eye" layer selected. I like to zoom in on the eye about 500%, so we can get detailed.


Step 4: Now we need to make a selection around the eye, there are various ways of doing this, if the eye is very round and easy to select, I recommend using the lasso tool. If the eye is a bit more complicated, use the pen tool. Since the eye I am working with is so round, I am actually going to just use a 5px hard brush. I also set my foreground color to #00d2ff.


Step 5: I am now going to paint over the eye as precise as possible using the brush tool, and if needed, I will shrink the brush tool to around 1 - 3px if needed. Keep in min, I did this to both eyes.


Step 6: Now I zoomed back out to 100%, I put the blending mode to "Color." Now if you notice, it came out great, but let's touch it up just a bit more. Go up to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur (Settings: 1 - 2px). So it looks a bit more smoother, now if you missed anything, just zoom in and fix it up!
