The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and an apparatus for face image correction. The method includes: a distance information set is obtained via a preset face model and a geometric information set, a correction coefficient set is calculated and obtained according to the distance information set, a two-dimensional correction function is established by employing the correction coefficient set, and high-precision recognition of perceptive distortion is realized. In this way, face images can be accurately corrected by employing the two-dimensional correction function, the real rate of faces is effectively restored, user experience is enhanced, and the method and the apparatus are applicable to various people.
