An apparatus and a method for removing blooming of a camera image are provided. When a lane marking is not normally detected from an image obtained by photographing a front view or a rear view of a car, it is determined whether the blooming is generated in the image. When it is determined that the blooming is generated, a mask for removing the blooming is generated and superposed on the image. Accordingly, a situation that the lane marking is not normally detected due to the blooming caused by a head light of a car can be reduced or prevented in advance.
