The video explains the red-eye effect in photos, caused by a camera flash reflecting off blood vessels in the eye. It describes the eye's anatomy and how it adapts to light changes. The red-eye effect occurs when pupils are wide in low light, and a sudden flash doesn't allow the iris to contract in time. Solutions include pre-flash settings and brightening the room. The effect can also indicate eye health issues. The video concludes with a thank you to patrons and a call to action to support and subscribe.
