The first thing we should learn is why Red Eye occurs. Simply because if you know why you can prevent it and not even have to learn this tool. The technical explanation from Wikipedia:

In flash photography the light of the flash occurs too fast for the pupil to close, so much of the very bright light from the flash passes into the eye through the pupil, reflects off the fundus at the back of the eyeball and out through the pupil. The camera records this reflected light. The main cause of the red color is the ample amount of blood in the choroid. This nourishes the back of the eye and is located behind the retina.

However, in a more simple terms, it occurs when a flash that occurs close to the camera lens (the case with most compact cameras and smart phones), in low ambient light. However, sometimes this is unavoidable, as you want to capture the moment, but simply don’t have a great setup for it. Well, take the picture, and upload it to iPiccy Photo Editor later, and edit it.
