Red eye is caused when the flash bounces around the inside of the eye and this light makes its way to the camera, so the worst case is when the eye is pointing right at the flash and the camera lens. Change the angles and you can avoid red eye entirely. (For those who always use flash, turn off the flash when you don’t need it and you not only avoid red eye, but you get more three-dimensional scenes.)

You can also take out red eye after you take a photo and that is what the professional photographers I know mostly do. Photo editing tools have features specifically for red eye removal.
