Droopy eyelids can be caused by several factors, such as:
Genetics
Some people naturally have excess eyelid skin and excess fat around the eyes, making their eyes appear puffy. This often results in monolids or hidden eyelid creases. People in this group are often told that they look stern, tired, or unfriendly even when they’re not.
Frequent use of double eyelid tape
Using double eyelid tape regularly can stretch the skin in that area over time. Eventually, the skin may begin to sag. The more frequently it is used, the higher the chance of developing sagging eyelids earlier. This has become increasingly common nowadays due to the growing popularity of double eyelid tape.
Aging
As people get older, droopy eyelids or sagging outer corners of the eyes often become more noticeable.
Eyelids drooping enough to push the eyelashes inward
This can cause the eyelashes to rub against the cornea, leading to eye irritation, excessive tearing, redness, and even eye inflammation.
Drooping at the outer corners of the eyes
Droopy eyelids, especially at the outer corners, may affect facial appearance. In some beliefs, droopy outer eye corners are associated with poor facial fortune, which is where the phrase “droopy eyes don’t attract wealth” comes from.
Droopy eyelids affecting vision
Severely drooping eyelids can block part of your visual field, causing narrower vision.
If you have any of these symptoms or characteristics, they can be treated. Beyond improving your appearance and confidence, treatment can also help improve your overall quality of life.
