You have a number of ways :

1. Sometimes a simple auto-curves will cure your ills.
2. A3 has special tools for wiping away PF - use the CA block.
3. If no other purple in the image then you can selectively desaturate colours.
4. Halo reduction sometimes works.
5. Lens Correction profiles can also do the job.
6. PTLens (small $) works too.

See which works for you.

That last shot makes me smile SpecialK! The fisheye enhances the "personal space" strangers place between themselves and others in public spaces.
