Do you have the full res image anywhere?
I can't tell you how to do it in PSP but I might be able to help you out and get it done for you in PS.

If both of you are willing can you share before and after and something of your methodology?

Eyeglass glare if it's over the eye itself is very hard to repair. Scott Kelby suggests whenever you do portraits you take the lenses out of the frames OR you shoot on an angle or you take a photo with and with out glasses so you can clone in the unglassed eyes.

If I am shooting I have become very mindful of this because if you are shooting events you can't do some of that to get it right in camera. Also, if you are using flash, you need to have it way above the eyeglass level or to the side to not have the flash glare.

Right, avoidance is always the best policy. I was wondering about the hopefully rare case when you blow it on the glasses, but the rest of the picture makes it the keeper if you can fix the glasses.

Sometimes you can soften the glare with some burining or healing brush. I think PSP has a eyeglass repair tool. I haven't used it in a long time.

Only you and the client can decide if the glare is bad/good enough to keep the image. Usually, unless I don't have another photo that is better, don't even show them to the client. They would not make the cut.

I usually watch out for glasses glare but this one shot my client has her heart set on is the one with glare. Grrrr what are the odds.
