Throughout my career as a photo retoucher, I see and hear these terms used interchangeably.
Retouching is a general term describing any changes made to a photo, including color-correction and manipulation. The term is generally understood as something an artist does to make a photograph look better.
Restoration is a specific state of retouching—which includes color correction—to make a damaged photograph look like it did when it was originally printed. So restoration is a sub-category of retouching.
What's your opinion?
