A member asked:
I'm having bright red eyes in a photo, can it indicate a medical condition?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: This is a common and normal phenomenom (red reflex). That's why there is a "red eye" feature on most digital cameras. You probably have large pupils. If the color of one of your eye reflexes was white (leukocoria), that needs immediate investigation.
