We check the formalism used to derive stray light corrections from measured aureole intensities and correct an error in the pertinent literature. We solve the alleged problem of appropriately normalizing the spread function by treating blurring and scattering separately. We test the method by comparing stray light corrections derived from both the aureole and from intensity profiles across Mercury's disk obtained during the transit of November 10, 1973.
