Are my photos secure?

Absolutely. We don’t use your photos for training, and all uploads are automatically deleted from our servers.

Can it fix winks (one eye closed)?

Not yet. Currently, the tool works best when both eyes are closed. But we’re actively working on improving this!

Will the quality of my photo be affected?

No. The final image maintains high resolution and photo quality.

Can it fix eyes in low-quality photos?

Yes, it works on low-quality photos, but the results may not be very good. We recommend upscaling the image before uploading.

Opens eyes naturally, doesn’t create new ones

Most AI tools generate random eyes that rarely match your real features. LightX does it differently. It detects your actual eye shape and face structure to open your eyes naturally and not replace them. The results you get look very natural, like they were never edited.
