Nope, no experience with contacts causing excessive red-eye problems...
at least that I know of. And thanks for the red-eye fix tip pasting the
blue channel over the red channel. Got some specifics for that?
Whenever I have bad problems with eyes and flash or glasses and flash I
will attempt to paste in pupils or whole eyes and lids copied from
somewhere else. Preferably the same person from a different shot if
available or even the reversed eye from the opposite side if not
affected the same way. You need a lot of luck for this approach but it
sometimes works.
