I have tried many creams for the bags under my eyes that bother me very much. Some work temporarily for parties, some not at all. When I listen about surgery, it is about removal of the fat from under eyes, however I am not convinced that is the fat since some creams take them away temporarily. I am a bit confused about the treatment. I just know I hate having these ugly bags under my beautiful eyes.
If you want to get rid of those bags beneath your eyes, all you have to do is sleep with your head elevated. When you're lying down, fluid builds up underneath your eyes, so keep your head up with two pillows - but don't sleep with your face in the pillow. Also put a cold wet washcloth on your eyes every morning for at least 30 seconds. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it does work. I've been doing this for years!
@@nad7742 When you're lying down, fluid builds up underneath your eyes. Try sleeping on your back with your head slightly elevated about 20 to 30 degrees by using two pillows. This will help lessen and eliminate those bags.
Thanks for adding this! The only concern I have with pillows specifically is that it may put stress on the spine and could result in some other issues (I lose feeling in my arms when I sleep with my head jacked up like that) but sleeping with your whole body at a slight incline may help.
It is because you are pumping the fluid out from under your eyes with cardio. It is the heat of the exercise plus the draining that does the trick. The lazy way, very hot showers on the face for a minute or two. It expands the vessels and lets them drain. All this Apply Cold is nonsensical.

@@1Corinthians15_1-4Respectfully, your Soo brainwashed. Anyway, let me give you a story, when I was a Correctional Officer long ago, After, Chapel service, two inmates came to me, a Murderer and a child molester and said, that they were saved and going to heaven when they die. Then they said to me that aren't you happy that you're going to heaven too? I looked at both of them and said, "why would I like to go to somewhere where they allow you two?" My point exactly.
I was going through the 5 stages of denial watching this but at the end I reached acceptance. Less salt and a cold compress is all you can do. Also, I think moving to a colder climate might help in general.
I have severe dry eyes. I didn't know about the retinol exacerbating dry eye. I use retinol cream every night, and I always put it around my eyes. No more!!! Thank you! ❤️
I've noticed that if I sleep on my back, I don't get the puffiness under my eyes. If I sleep on my side, then that side gets puffy. I figured it's like lividity, where your fluids pool when you die depending on position of your body at death. It's hard for me to sleep on my back, I even try to slant my upper body up for sinus reasons & find that's even better. As a senior woman on low sodium diet, this is only my observation, no scientific study, but it's free to try at home, no risks. Glad to see a Dr. Not selling his own products.
Yes that works great ! Your lucky I find it sooooo hard to sleep on my back but I do for a week before an important function so my under eyes look great.
If I don't sleep on my back my eyes are terribly swollen in morning. I now sleep on sofa with pillows propping up my head to be elevated. The added support for my hips to lean into the back of sofa, helps keep me comfortable. And the arm of the sofa keeps my head elevated.
I'm 43 and got Ulcerative Colitis last year. I lost around 100lbs in 4 months and I now have very noticeable bags under my eyes. I will try these techniques. Thanks!
BLAST ! ! ! You know that saying - "You didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, you told me what I needed to hear."? Pains me to say that this saying fits in this situation. I WANTED AN EASY FIX ! ! ! But thank you for your honesty and integrity. You're a good man and a great doctor.....
Thanks for mentioned retinol creams, in fact I noticed that after using retinol under my eyes I got a blurry vision and very eye dry, I visited the eye doctor but couldn't tell me what the issue was. I did not have this problem with any other creams, I will stop using retinol under my eyes. Thanks again.
I had a lower lid blepharoplasty done at age 66 and never regretted it. I had extreme puffy eyes and now I look like the rest of the population. I feel like a normal person. No great beauty but I do not have those depressing bags anymore. Sometimes diet changes and allergy meds just don't cut it.
Exactly! I've been stopped while walking through the mall by several sales people with different products 😢 I'm definitely going to have my bags removed 🎉
@@ardymoore694 I don't know you, but I want you to be happy. If happy is NOT having it done, that's o.k.! If getting a blepharoplasty done that's o.k. too. It's all about YOU. All I can tell you is I didn't know what was worse, the lower bulges or the upper over hang puffiness. I needed both. Ardymoore, I can't TELL you how relieved I STILL am that I no longer have undereye pouches. My surgeon told me I might want the upper lids done again, but the lower space under the eye never returns. I suppose had I to choose one I would have chosen the under eye pouches. Mine were rather 'sad'. They were gone the minute I was sent out of the O.R. (you will have to pay for an O.R., otherwise upper lids are done in the surgeon's office). My friend picked me up to go home, and I looked into her rear view mirror,... and I was shocked that my bulges were GONE. You can decide which procedure you will want, but there are two. One is to excise fat from the outside of the lid. The other is to do it from the inside thus no cutting of the lower eye muscle - which is what I did. Study up on it to make your VERY VEST decision, .. and I wish you MUCH HAPPINESS!!!! 😍
@@superiormanx7649 I just think it's better to use the word aged when it comes to the elderly. We used the word aged in our family coming up when we were speaking of the elderly. I am in my 40s but I think when a person calls someone old it's possible it could make them feel obsolete and I just don't want them to feel that way. I have heard the word old used in many ugly ways toward the aged or elderly.
@@Anonymous-jx8zy Hi Loney...despite how it's used by some, 'old' is not a derogatory term...it connotates wisdom, experience, knowledge, &/or resilience... :-)
Bless you, doc, for suggesting an ice pack for itchy eyes. I've had lifelong allergies and my mother was always telling me "don't rub your eyes!" that but the relentless itching without relief was maddening. 🤩 And I've finally learned what the tiny blisters are on the rim of my eyelids: blocked Meibomian glands. Interesting. I get them from wearing waterproof mascara.
@@extravale they appear as tiny blisters on the rim of my eyelid. I wash my hands thoroughly and scrape a fingernail over them to pop them. Sometimes I have to repeat that until they go away.
@@DoctorEyeHealth I got an eyebag under my right eye that seems to be caused by something in one of your video's thumnail: "MGD (Dry Eye) Treatment Guide - How to Treat Meibomian Gland Dysfunction" I got those oil deposits yellow sitting under my right eye, it look as if it's swollen as if I got hurt, when I touch my right under eyelid it's hard unlike the one on the left. I'm not sure how to get rid of it. The last time I did consultation few years ago, the practitionner told me it's untreatable. I highly doubt it's untreatable...
Thank you so much for an honest and realistic answer to what is a problem for me. I'm 80, and I've been lucky genetically that my face and skin have stayed quite firm. I had cataract surgery and after the surgery suddenly I ended up with these bags under my eyes. I've been going crazy buying all kinds of things that do not work. Now, after your video, I'll use the salt free and cold compress method to minimize it and if it doesn't satisfy me enough I'll look into having the corrective under eye surgery. Your channel is a huge help
How to get rid of puffy eyes: Lower salt intake Cold compresses Do not rub your eyes. Surgery. Do not use eye cream on the eye lids, especially retinoids. Protect your eye skin area: big hats, sunglasses, spf.
Thanks so much for the info. My under eye bags are huge and embarrassing. People usually think there's something wrong with me. They're a heredity trait unfortunately, that runs in my family on my father's side.
It's okay i have them too, people often ask me if i'm tired, but i get them from my mums side and i see my mum in the mirror and she won't be around forever ❤
Very impressed with your video. As an Ophthalmic Technician for over 20 years, who works with an Ophthalmologist who specializes in Levator Advancement surgery and an expert on dry eye, I agree almost 100% with the information you provided. However, I do need to make mention of a more minimally invasive procedure call laser lower lid resurfacing that works absolutely incredible! I do suggest your patients and follower only see a board certified Ophthalmologist for consultation. In my experience, general plastic surgeons are slightly less experienced with lid skin and tend to be a bit more radical with their fat removal. Thank you for your time. Keep up the good work.
@@andygarza8132 Yeah because God forbid anyone should try to make dough. They'd all be scamming, conniving scumbags, right? Then I guess you called most of humanity scamming, conniving scumbags. I hope you like being as special as you are.
I've noticed that the lack of the proper amount of daily sleep(for me) is the main cause of my under eye bags. If I get less than 6 hours per night or if the sleep is broken(waking up in the middle of a sleep cycle) then my under eye area is negatively affected.
Cucumbers actually reduce inflammation. I eat them to reduce inflammation in my body. I have a severe case of inflammation so ive done this. My body moves with less pain because the inflammation is down. If i can feel it inside my body it makes sense it would work on the outside of my body too. I would suggest mashing a cucumber to get the juices out of them then soak the eyes in the mash instead of using slices because with the contours of the eyes slices may not get into every spot.
@@coolmint2835 eyelidswere ok’d by medicare, but the bags were considered cosmetic which I paid out of pocket $4,000. All done under same eye plastic surgeon and one anesthetic....was done in Fresno Calif 8 years ago. At Eye-Q. O one believes I am almost 80. P.M. me andI will show photos
You are much smarter and aware than all the other physicians who have posted videos on this subject on RUclips. Your point about the skin under the eye helps a lot. Using an ice pack under my left eye less than 3 minutes has already lowered my eye puffiness by 100%. Thanks a Million!!👍👍
You are so full of wisdom concerning eye health. I trust you in every way as you have dry eyes and so do I. Thank so much for your personality and funny actions as you explain things. Many blessings to you and keep up the good work!
Under eye bags can be hereditary. It ran in our family. Noticing the fat pockets starting to protrude in my mid twenties, I had my under eye fat removed by a plastic surgeon. Best decision. As my sister aged, I was so glad I didn’t have the bags she had. Once the fat was removed, it never came back. That was 35 years ago.
Boy!!! You sound professional to a very large degree without selling something or creating a long winded video to discuss your ancestry, experience and relations with celebrities. I liked it....
I appreciate the diagram of the fat pushing out underneath the eye. My opthamalogist has talked to me about the surgery, but your visual helped me understand the condition and the surgery. My eye bags are caused by genetics but eating a high salt meal definitely makes them swell even larger! I am considering elevating my bed with bricks under the headboard legs...Thank you.
I have them & they are hereditary. I sleep with my head elevated already cuz of back injury & still have them. I have noticed when I put tea bags on them it helps a little but so far that's the only thing I've noticed to help. I don't eat salt at all. Never did. My mom never gave it to me & I can't eat any food with too much in it. Very sensitive to it.
I had a Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty (finally at age 65) in November 2019 and apart from having two beautiful children, it was the best thing I had ever done. I had an Endoscopic Brow Lift 1 year later in November 2020. In reality, it takes a knife or a needle to remove or improve one’s cosmetic concerns. Now my eyes are complete! I absolutely love the results! Next stop-not plastic surgery but I am going to have my eyebrows microbladed.
@@ivymenchavez9434 Yes, the lower eyelid blepharoplasty. I had some pockets and dark circles and now they are 💯% gone. What a pleasure! You can apply for Care Credit and most doctors will accept that, gives you some breathing room depending on what plan the doctor’s office accepts. Where I live plastic surgery is actually reasonable and I have a wonderful plastic surgeon!😀
Wow I've used retinol products under my eyes for a few months now thinking I've been doing the right thing. I have noticed slight worsening of my dry eyes but never correlated it to my retinol creams. Just hope I haven't caused any permanent damage 😭😭
I am 13! Yes 13 and I struggle with eye bags this was a great helpful video and I will try to use these tactics more. I think the main problem may be that when I was younger I would sleep with no pillow at all and only use my arm but now I'm trying to get into the habit of using them again
Thanks. I have known for some time, I need an upper eye lift, because my hooded eye lids are weighing down my eyelashes into my line of vision. Plus, I learned years ago, the only real solution to my under eye puffiness is surgery. Add allergies, and I am a mess during peak allergy seasons. Thank for confirmation, on what I already had determined was my best options. I see my eye doctor in a couple weeks to discuss the best person for the procedure. I appreciate your precise and concise delivery, your integrity, and your nice manner. Blessings 🕊💕🕯😇🙏🏻💚
Hopefully you did not get surgery yet. I saw on a RUclips commercial where a lady developed a sticky patch to put in the eyelid crease and voila no drooping eyelids!
My allergies were also worsening my melasma. Getting a robot vacuum REALLY helped. It runs everyday on a schedule. I also launder my bedding more often because of pets.
Greeting from South Africa. May God Bless you with all the desires of your heart for making this video. It's a blessing to me. I am definitely going to do a Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty, because Under Eye Bags make me look 10 - 15 years older than I am. My main cause has been scratching my eyes, whenever I have a allergy, from when I was 10 years old. They started showing when I was 42 years old. Now I am 52 years old and they make me look way older than I am. To those who don't have Eye Bags yet, please stop scratching your eyes. That will help to delay them from showing up.
What about when you have natural under eye bags? I've had them my whole entire life. No matter what, they're always there. If I use a cold compress, does it last all day? Or do I need to keep using it? I'm tired of folks asking if I'm tired or what happened to my eyes.
Ask a geriatric physician....they can tell in a second.......eating deli? Swollen ankles are serious as....dare I say...a heart attack. Took my dad when he had swollen ankles. Good doctor, said one word, posed as a question.... deli? Uhhh, yes.
Thank you so much for your advice on this issue. I just recently noticed that I had a more pronounced eye bag under one of my eyes than the other. I have decided to cut back my salt intake and get into a better sleeping routine. It’s funny because the day I found your video I had taken out a cooling mask I had in my refrigerator and promised myself I was going to try it that night. Thanks again for all your advice.
Friends of mine went to a hospital in Bangkok to have this surgery because it was much cheaper than in America. I thought they were a bit silly but the surgery worked.
Cucumbers reduce swelling. Effective on swollen ankle sprains for one. I had 4 wasp bites on the back of my hand. 3 days of swelling and itch. I finally used a few slices placed on the swelling wrapped with cellophane. The swelling was vastly reduced and I could see my knuckles again after 45 minutes. My thought was no wonder they used this for the eyes years ago. Try it yourselves
To eliminate those under-eye pouches, simply rest with your head raised. When reclining, fluid accumulates beneath your eyes, so maintain an elevated position using two pillows-just avoid placing your face directly on the pillow. Additionally, apply a chilled moist towel to your eyes every morning for a minimum of 30 seconds. It may seem absurd, but this technique is truly effective. I have been following these steps for numerous years!
Thank you for your upfront honesty and not trying to sell any BS. I’ve never seen your videos before, but I’ll be looking out for them now. I’ll make sure to give your advice a try. God Bless
Interesting video. I'm a physician myself but as we all know its too easy to overlook important issues in other specialties. I did not realize that some of those tightening creams could be seriously bad leading to dry eye disease. That said use for say a special occasion - in other words infrequent use - probably lowers the risk of serious issues. I've heard of people using preparation H - same stuff used for hemorrhoids elsewhere in the body - I was wondering whether this was harmful too created the same issues. Your thoughts on careful and occasional use of these creams etc would be appreciated. Thanks for an excellent tutorial.
Hey thanks for asking. I have heard the preparation H trick too. It seems plausible to help, however, if it hasn't been tested and we don't have clinical evidence to back it up - and that use would be off label, I caution away from it. I will have to look more closely at the ingredients to see if there is anything in it that could cause problems to the eyelids long term.
Can you elaborate on the surgery itself pease? How straightforward is it? Is it under general anesthesia? How long does it take? Are there complications? How long does it take to recover and see improvements? Any before and after photos would help too! Thank you!
I'm 75 & wore contact lenses from age 15 to my thirties, when I had an early form of "lasik", i.e. radial kerotomy, which allowed me to go without corrective lenses, at least partially! However, I always felt that the decades of pulling down my eyelids to insert contacts, led me to have premature 'baggy eyelids'! So, I believe other factors, beside heredity, can affect the tightness of your eyelids!
Also I used to put cold things under my eyes to get that "soothe" feeling but I noticed it was making my eye darker and a little bit more puffy. I think it was due to the cold stopping circulation and the warmth keeps that circulation going. I stopped cold compressing and doing a little bit of acupressure and my under eye area became more aesthetically pleasing for me.
I wouldn't use a " frozen spoon " the tissue around the eyes is delicate and the extreme cold on a metal spoon will actually freeze burn the surface, a cold spoon will suffice, just saying .
Does retinaldehyde cause the same kind of damage in the eye area as retinol? Also, aren’t the preservatives in the eye drops also a risk for causing dry eye issues?
I had undereye bags when I was in my 40's. I felt I was ageing prematurely and I researched what I could do and I went to a Dermatologist and got laser under my eyes and it zapped away the bags and wrinkles. Today I am 68 the bags have slightly returned but it is ok, it is age appropriate.
Oh wow! I had no idea a dermatologist could zap a eye bag away. I have a small lil bag underneath my right eye thats bugging me and I want it gone! Imma contact a dermatologist asap. THANKS!
@@cljmcclain how did he or she zap the eye bag away all those years ago… Was it through a laser or what? What exactly did he or she do if you can remember that… As I say I know it was a good while ago. Thanks
Hi Doctor, Thank you for your video.☺️ I have two questions : Can taking hyaluronic acid supplements Increase bags under your eyes? Also can collagen supplements help with eye bag? Thank you
This is my personal experience as a 37year old woman, who didn't get into skincare until 35.. 1) Elevate your head at night, to avoid fluid buildup. If you wake up with a stuffy nose and undereye-bags that goes away during the day- this could help 2) When doing your morning skincare routine, lean your head back and massage from the nose and outwards and upwards with your favourite cream on your fingers.. It "drains" some of the fluid. Don't pull your skin, but do keep a little bit of pressure there.. 3) drink more water!! Dehydrated skin looses elastisity.. I'm so bad at this, but working on it. Just drink more water. Period. 4) Keep two teaspoons in your fridge overnight and put them on your undereyes in the morning, it helps to depuff 5) Keep your skin hydrated. Aloe vera is really good for this 6) if all else fails, cream used to relieve hemroids can do wonders for your eyebags. Ask your doctor first before trying this tip though
what about warm masks? my optometrist told me they’re better for eye strain and can help with the puffiness too by helping the unwanted liquids flow away
Favourite part of the video was learning how to prevent eye bags as much as possible and the tips that help reduce it even if it isn’t all the way reduced
I use a gel, Renu 28, which I put under my eyes, directly on the baggy area. (I don’t know why anyone would put such a product on the eyelid.) Renu 28 has dramatically reduced my level of under-eye bagginess.
I had bags that were just a little kind of puff. I noticed when I stopped using alot of my face products and started just a good retinoid ( I have sensitive skin so I use kinami7 retinoid) this helps collagen and isn't applied under my eye but my face only. It has improved my skin texture and my face looks more youthful ( glow, less sagging and brighter) this I guess helped tighten the under eye skin and now I look like I have 8 hours sleep a night lol
Yepper, it's age for me. I'm 71, and never wear makeup. I do struggle with fluid retention, but the bags are with me even on my low-salt diet. I have the ugliest eyebags ever. They show up as big lumps under each eye. I wear sunglasses all the time to hide my lumpy bags. I've considered surgery but I'm so nervous about that. I've seen so many women who go in for cosmetic surgery and they come out worse than they went in. I don't care about wrinkles or eyelifts, I just want the bags gone.
Under eyelid surgery is different. There is no tightening of skin or fillers, just the removal of the bags. You will look like you, but better. Go for it.
My dad and I both had very noticeable under eye bags. People always remarked that I looked tired, when I wasn’t. After hearing that over and over, I went and got the bags removed with lower blepharoplasty. That was almost thirty years ago. So glad I did. It was a minor surgery. Don’t be nervous about it. My dad got his done too.
I've had eye bags since I was born, it's hereditary, some of my siblings have them too. I drink strong Black Tea in morning and afternoon, acts as diuretics. Wake up noticing the eyebags have reduced significantly almost disappeared. I live in Africa and cannot risk the surgery. Thanks Doctor, fantastic video👍
Wow👏👏impressed by your honest, enlightening and convincing sharing...very helpful in learning how to remove eye bags which bother many women. Thanks a lot , Doc🤗🤗
Thankyou for all your kind advice.... When a person has been through trauma, abuse any excruciating painful stuff.... I recall you mentioned the affect on one's vision, so obviously puffy eyes also play a part... my question is can there be full recovery does it depend on age?....
Trauma can play a lot of roles on the eyes, trauma directly to the eye can result in tissue damage and therefore swollen eyes such as in the case of a black eye. Severe enough trauma can damage the orbit which can lead to muscle and nerve damage which can often lead to double vision. In both of these cases, the tissue does often heal over time, even for nerve damage - this can heal over the course of 6 months or so. Swelling of the eyelids usually resolves over a few days to weeks due to trauma, but obviously, better with treatment (like cold compresses). What I find most fascinating is how trauma can lead to hysterical amblyopia - which is where even though your eyes see just fine, your mind makes you think you are seeing blurry (or not at all). Crazy how powerful the mind can be.
Finding this video is great for me because i have dryness in my eyes n also help to find that salty foods are not good for my eye's bags,. Thank you, doctor!!!
Super good suggestion! I should see what I can do. In the meantime, I use a few desk lamps from Dr Lite drliteusa.com/?wpam_id=5 (I have even done some sponsored posts for them as I love them so much) If they are out of your price range you can use code DR10%JA for 10% off.

My eye bags are located right on the top of my cheekbones. My Mother had exactly the same problem. Genetics plays a role. I've tried using cold eye masks, but really hasn't worked. Sleeping with one's head elevated can increase neck and spinal problems. I appreciate all the information given but for temporary tightening of that area, I've used Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx EYE - it actually works. NOT for everyday though as I believe it will dry out the under eye area.
Besides salt, another thing that adds to eye bags is carbs. Consuming carbs before bedtime will guarantee puffy eyes. Most people with a high carb diet seem to have baggier eyes. Also, keep a small stone facial roller in the freezer and use it to help smooth out bags. Feels good and works well.
Jogging (any exercise that make you sweaty) somehow got rid of my eye bugs as I stay in front of monitor for a min 9 hours a day 5 days a week. As soon as I stop jogging, the eye bug returned. Perhaps it's only for me. For others it may not work. Cold compression also helps a lot for me.
Oh my goodness!! This is an excellent idea!! This was part of my problem, nothing, absolutely nothing recommended was working for me. The eye bags appeared out of nowhere! But, very interestingly, they appeared after I could not exercise or expend! I tried home remedies and creams and cold, my diet was also scrutinized (everything!) and it was stunning me because it wouldn't go away. Proper ambulation is a fabulous thought and one I would have never even stumbled upon! Thank you! (Admittedly I do not move around enough I limit my intake so that I don't gain weight, but I have incidentally reduced my own movement!) I have been needing to improve my physical health and I have been lazy to do so, but maybe my "vanity" will be the trigger I need! Again, I can't thank you enough!
So now I’m depressed. I started noticing under eye bags a couple years ago when I lost 22 kg. after never having bags in my life ( except for late nights) Now I understand, it’s just old age! Wonderful! 😱😊
Could you please elaborate on the problem of dry eyes caused by the use of creams like Retin A, as you quickly mentioned on this video. Thank you very much.
I use Oil of Olay eyes with collagen peptide it works for me and also salt is not your friend... And also I buy equate brand of collagen and put it in black coffee...Thanks for the video!!
My favourite part of the video medical explanation of eye allergies+histamine release and also last point - many under eye bag creams containing preservatives that can lead to dry eyes (damage of meibonian glands of eyelids)
Thanks for the graphic depiction of why I've developed a set of luggage under my eyes as I aged, as I never had any sign of bags when younger. Hard pass on the surgery though, my fear of it from past experience is far greater than any vanity I still have left! lol
This is a perfect question for which I need answers for! I tried out home remedies, etc (except prescriptions) however this video was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks. Xx
I've been drinking bone broth for a couple of months now - which has lots of collagen - and an unexpected benefit is that my undereye bags are much less pronounced. This video explains a possible reason: The collagen may be strengthening the septum holding the fat back.
Thank you Doctor. I had under eye Botox (5units) around each eye one year ago. I developed extremely swollen eyes as soon as the Botox took effect. A year later, i am left with under eye bags that create shadows and give me dark circles . Do you think my septum could have been affected?
Maybe try soaking a rag in vinegar and water and let it set on your eyes for a bit? Vinegar is great for the skin. It smells while wet but when dry leaves no odor.
Thanks for ur videos!! I’ve used collagen eye masks for a while now & it rlly helps w my dark eye circles / eyebags ! 🤩 can u do a video on the best astigmatism contact lense brands?
You can get rid of astigmatism easily by rubbing castor oil on your upper and lower eye lids. I was diagnosed with and astigmatism and wore the contact lense for that and they always irritated my eyes for as long as I wore them. I started doing the castor oil treatment and went to another eye doctor months later and he could not see that I had an astigmatism and gave me a regular contact prescription and now I wear contacts that are comfortable again.
I find that the oils around my eyes, bags and eyes included, really improve in fluidity for smoothing out problems anytime I've consumed a lot of Carrot juice and beetroot juice. Do you think that is a good preventative solution to problems in later life, or even a potential treatment, along with CBD for smooth muscles not inflamming/ reversing tension and pressure in general?
I am not certain of the mechanism of action behind the carrot and beetroot juice but eating healthy and eating whole foods (as well as staying hydrated) is very good for your skin and overall health. CBD is an interesting topic too. I know cbd is great for relaxation and anxiety, at the moment, I do know research has shown CBD can increase eye pressure, at least transiently, so I don't recommend you put it in the eyes lol.
@@DoctorEyeHealth It's interesting that being stoned leads to red eye! 😂 But I do think vitamins A, D, E, and K work together. Personally, I've noticed that since making an extra effort to consume natural vitamin A (I had been deficient in it) the halogen light bulb wrinkles I seem to have developed on my skin in the past seem to be more ironed out. It would make sense that fat soluble vitamins help collagen in an overall way.
@@slambangwallop Take note, that if you have had your gallbladder removed, your stomach will no longer receive the Bile it needs to remove all of the fat soluble vitamins from your foods. Even with a diet of raw foods. Or a diet in general the Gallbladder is the only gland to make this bile. Most MDs have no clue they are setting you up for a slow starvation of those extremely needed fats soluble vitamins when they do those Gallbladder removals. Stomach stapling, reductions & lapland procedures causes this very same thing but with a much more concerning reaction to any over eating esp with high fatty foods. Our Body needs good fats in our diets that is a must have fats converts quickly to cell growth. Vitamin D3 is not only a Fat soluble Vitamin it is also a co-hormone believe it. With out D3 Not D2.

With low D3 we will have high cholesterol levels of all types, this is our bodies way of telling us we have a D2 Conversion problem to D3 or we have D3 deficiency as cholesterol is quite literally our brains food. Taking Statens will remove the excess cholesterol in our livers but that also removes our brains food source, which is not good at all. Now this is also another definite tell that our bodies are Low in D3. Is always having high blood pressure no matter what you do to reduce the Systolic B.P. along with Air hunger. Loss of your teeth do to crumbling, cavities from the teeth crumbling. Sleep disorders. Depression. O.C.D. O.D.D. Bi-Polar disorder are all signs you are extremely deficient and should get your Labs done by a reputable laboratory and always get copies of your labs so you yourself can learn how to read thos lab sheets and see what your Doctor determines as a bit low. fine or within range. Each one of those comments is a red flag. If you're having any of the above and have had your gallbladder removed or a Stomach stapling for at least 4 years? get those labs. The Optimal range is when we are shooting for 80 to 120 with severe symptoms we're shooting for 130 until the most difficult symptoms subside. Once diagnosed with D3 deficiencies your MD should never do your D3 labs again without taking you off D3 for at least 4 months so you do not get false highs in your labs and have your MD request you stop due to D3 being too high (Falsely too high) each time one stops their D3 protocols and one dips back to low double digits 10-20 (which most MDs think is perfectly fine it is not) so, getting your levels up again will be much harder each time you have to stop for a correct lab test. The Females in Child producing age will have issues with getting pregnant keeping the pregnancy if low enough will make you appear infertile. D3 deficiencies cause Ovarian cysts, fibroid growths of the uterus breast cervix and every other type of cancer as D3 is your first line of defense against cancers (this should be your very first lab test if you are having any one of these symptoms) these are abnormal but with low D3 should be the first check. Having heavy menstruation for a much longer time as well. D3 is also our first defence in fighting Cancers. Low D3 makes losing weight very difficult if not impossible and can help your body to become weightloss resistant. As we can see being deficient in D3 can be a serious health risk to you your pregnancies and your offspring if born to a Mother who was low during the pregnancy. Your Children should also be placed on D3 also if when you learn of your deficiency. Those who are of a darker Melanin are almost always deficient to the extrem. Sunscreens that have a high SPF should be used sparingly it's also the best if you sit in the sun with your upper chest and eyes exposed to get sunlight helps the body to start and /or reset your natural internal clock. Which is a very good thing. I hope I answered all of your questions that I could remember anyways. If I missed some feel free to send direct message to me and I will do my best to answer those I missed. Be well and Be Blessed in all you do. Enjoy your Weekends everyone. Thank you. M.
@@margolockwood9323 Thanks. I'm actually very worried about my sister's health. She just had a psychosis, her physical health is terribly deteriorated. I'm actually terrified! Mum brought her in to have her gallbladder removed as a child, after she had already been to death's door and back as a baby. We've got developmental health issues in the family, that's all I can say, I guess. It makes me furious, to be honest. Do you know if there's any way to help her with fat soluble vitamins? I was hoping that the liver could be as functional and replace the gallbladder's job without harm
@@slambangwallop Sad to hear about your Sister especially, but knowing that your family is predisposed to potential D3 Deficiencies is a good start. If she has not had a Gullbladder since childhood now would be a good time to get her D3 labs to know her levels and if she is lower than 80 now would be the time to get her on the D3 Protocol. Mental illness is a huge symptom of D3 deficiency but this can also be caused by other issues as well all of those issues need to be looked into. The only way I am aware of to get absorption of Fat soluble Vitamins is by using OX Bile at least 15 to 20 mins before eating for absorbing through the Tummy. There are some topical creams you can use also. (In my experience my deficiency was to severe I was a 4 when The deficiency was found) I had to go by way of OX Biles and eating foods high in D3. Once the D3 goes the B12 and all B Complexes go soon after with Folate and Ferritin which helps heps with Anemia. I am also blessed with Pernicious Anemia also. So, I live on the B12 protocol with daily injections and the B complexes Folate Ferritin. Low B12 causes nerve damage and painful joints, arthritis, vision issues such as 3D and blurred Vision to name a few. Once the body dips to below 200 in B12 the Nerves protective Mylan coatings on the ends degrade/dissolve leaving the nerve endings exposed tangled and becomes very unbearable pain wise. Go getting your levels up to the minimum 800 to 1200 and higher with nerve damage for me up to the 1500s was when I started seeing relief in my muscles joints walking easier less numbness and pins needles trigger fingers trigger wrist twitching eyes skin sensitivity. With some symptoms being diagnosed as M.S. sadly. Many lose their ability to walk some lose their ability to talk others become incontinent, many have all the symptoms while others have a few others have a list of but are walking talking Without issues and are not incontinent. Which is a great as t thing thank the GOD Almighty for saving me from that humiliation. Many of us will be in need of one of some mobility tools such as Walkers, walking canes, even wheelchair bound. Until we can get our levels up for some time without breaks in our Injections to allow our the cells in the body to fill up with the needed B12 and complex' that support the other two vitamins minerals micro minerals. I am now at a 174 and have a long way to go on both D3 and B12, an B Complexes. Of my deficiencies.

Have you had trouble with Eye Bags? What has worked best for you?
Want to know about eye blank out for seconds ?
How to get rid of the line that starts from the inner corner of the eye across the cheek. That i need to get rid of.
@Doctor Eye Health can u do a review of Visualize Tired eye drops about the ingredients..please
I have some query related my eye problem
May I personally ask you as
I have consulted my doctor twice but I have not got remedy of it
Plz help sir
I have tried many creams for the bags under my eyes that bother me very much. Some work temporarily for parties, some not at all. When I listen about surgery, it is about removal of the fat from under eyes, however I am not convinced that is the fat since some creams take them away temporarily. I am a bit confused about the treatment. I just know I hate having these ugly bags under my beautiful eyes.
If you want to get rid of those bags beneath your eyes, all you have to do is sleep with your head elevated. When you're lying down, fluid builds up underneath your eyes, so keep your head up with two pillows - but don't sleep with your face in the pillow. Also put a cold wet washcloth on your eyes every morning for at least 30 seconds. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it does work. I've been doing this for years!
THANKS!
@@nad7742
When you're lying down, fluid builds up underneath your eyes. Try sleeping on your back with your head slightly elevated about 20 to 30 degrees by using two pillows. This will help lessen and eliminate those bags.
@@alanmorris7669 Also helps snoring! Lol
Thanks for adding this! The only concern I have with pillows specifically is that it may put stress on the spine and could result in some other issues (I lose feeling in my arms when I sleep with my head jacked up like that) but sleeping with your whole body at a slight incline may help.

Yes that is the only to reduce them they are mostly hereditary but these market people try and make a fortune out of fake creams
It is because you are pumping the fluid out from under your eyes with cardio. It is the heat of the exercise plus the draining that does the trick. The lazy way, very hot showers on the face for a minute or two. It expands the vessels and lets them drain. All this Apply Cold is nonsensical.

I've noticed that if I sleep on my back, I don't get the puffiness under my eyes. If I sleep on my side, then that side gets puffy. I figured it's like lividity, where your fluids pool when you die depending on position of your body at death. It's hard for me to sleep on my back, I even try to slant my upper body up for sinus reasons & find that's even better. As a senior woman on low sodium diet, this is only my observation, no scientific study, but it's free to try at home, no risks.
Glad to see a Dr. Not selling his own products.
Yes that works great ! Your lucky I find it sooooo hard to sleep on my back but I do for a week before an important function so my under eyes look great.
Thanks for sharing Jan!!! Gravity does affect our bodies and its great that you have observed that. Many blessings

Wow, really glad to hear that retinol shouldn't be used on the eyelid. I will never use it there again! thank you.
Thanks for mentioned retinol creams, in fact I noticed that after using retinol under my eyes I got a blurry vision and very eye dry, I visited the eye doctor but couldn't tell me what the issue was. I did not have this problem with any other creams, I will stop using retinol under my eyes. Thanks again.
ditto…
The cream tried to dry out the fluid in the eye bag. And must've dried out your eye too. You must've been doing something wrong
I had a lower lid blepharoplasty done at age 66 and never regretted it. I had extreme puffy eyes and now I look like the rest of the population. I feel like a normal person. No great beauty but I do not have those depressing bags anymore. Sometimes diet changes and allergy meds just don't cut it.
Good to know👍
Exactly! I've been stopped while walking through the mall by several sales people with different products 😢 I'm definitely going to have my bags removed 🎉
@@ardymoore694 I don't know you, but I want you to be happy. If happy is NOT having it done, that's o.k.! If getting a blepharoplasty done that's o.k. too. It's all about YOU. All I can tell you is I didn't know what was worse, the lower bulges or the upper over hang puffiness. I needed both. Ardymoore, I can't TELL you how relieved I STILL am that I no longer have undereye pouches. My surgeon told me I might want the upper lids done again, but the lower space under the eye never returns. I suppose had I to choose one I would have chosen the under eye pouches. Mine were rather 'sad'. They were gone the minute I was sent out of the O.R. (you will have to pay for an O.R., otherwise upper lids are done in the surgeon's office).
My friend picked me up to go home, and I looked into her rear view mirror,... and I was shocked that my bulges were GONE.
You can decide which procedure you will want, but there are two. One is to excise fat from the outside of the lid. The other is to do it from the inside thus no cutting of the lower eye muscle - which is what I did. Study up on it to make your VERY VEST decision, .. and I wish you MUCH HAPPINESS!!!! 😍

Thank you so much for an honest and realistic answer to what is a problem for me. I'm 80, and I've been lucky genetically that my face and skin have stayed quite firm. I had cataract surgery and after the surgery suddenly I ended up with these bags under my eyes. I've been going crazy buying all kinds of things that do not work. Now, after your video, I'll use the salt free and cold compress method to minimize it and if it doesn't satisfy me enough I'll look into having the corrective under eye surgery. Your channel is a huge help

Hello thanks for the concise re cap of the doctor’s recommendations.
Thanks so much for the info. My under eye bags are huge and embarrassing. People usually think there's something wrong with me. They're a heredity trait unfortunately, that runs in my family on my father's side.
It's okay i have them too, people often ask me if i'm tired, but i get them from my mums side and i see my mum in the mirror and she won't be around forever ❤
Very impressed with your video. As an Ophthalmic Technician for over 20 years, who works with an Ophthalmologist who specializes in Levator Advancement surgery and an expert on dry eye, I agree almost 100% with the information you provided. However, I do need to make mention of a more minimally invasive procedure call laser lower lid resurfacing that works absolutely incredible! I do suggest your patients and follower only see a board certified Ophthalmologist for consultation. In my experience, general plastic surgeons are slightly less experienced with lid skin and tend to be a bit more radical with their fat removal. Thank you for your time. Keep up the good work.

I've noticed that the lack of the proper amount of daily sleep(for me) is the main cause of my under eye bags. If I get less than 6 hours per night or if the sleep is broken(waking up in the middle of a sleep cycle) then my under eye area is negatively affected.
Cucumbers actually reduce inflammation. I eat them to reduce inflammation in my body. I have a severe case of inflammation so ive done this. My body moves with less pain because the inflammation is down. If i can feel it inside my body it makes sense it would work on the outside of my body too. I would suggest mashing a cucumber to get the juices out of them then soak the eyes in the mash instead of using slices because with the contours of the eyes slices may not get into every spot.

Under eye bags can be hereditary. It ran in our family. Noticing the fat pockets starting to protrude in my mid twenties, I had my under eye fat removed by a plastic surgeon. Best decision.

Hopefully you did not get surgery yet. I saw on a RUclips commercial where a lady developed a sticky patch to put in the eyelid crease and voila no drooping eyelids!
I've heard and saw some ladies who had blepharoplasty to improve the blockage that lids can cause.
My allergies were also worsening my melasma. Getting a robot vacuum REALLY helped. It runs everyday on a schedule. I also launder my bedding more often because of pets.
Greeting from South Africa. May God Bless you with all the desires of your heart for making this video. It's a blessing to me. I am definitely going to do a Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty, because Under Eye Bags make me look 10 - 15 years older than I am. My main cause has been scratching my eyes, whenever I have a allergy, from when I was 10 years old. They started showing when I was 42 years old. Now I am 52 years old and they make me look way older than I am. To those who don't have Eye Bags yet, please stop scratching your eyes. That will help to delay them from showing up.
What about when you have natural under eye bags? I've had them my whole entire life. No matter what, they're always there. If I use a cold compress, does it last all day? Or do I need to keep using it? I'm tired of folks asking if I'm tired or what happened to my eyes.

To eliminate those under-eye pouches, simply rest with your head raised. When reclining, fluid accumulates beneath your eyes, so maintain an elevated position using two pillows-just avoid placing your face directly on the pillow. Additionally, apply a chilled moist towel to your eyes every morning for a minimum of 30 seconds. It may seem absurd, but this technique is truly effective. I have been following these steps for numerous years!
thanks for this!
Would you generally recommend applying daily sunscreen (or at all) on the eyelids and eye area, or would you suggest to avoid the eye area altogether?
Definitely yes! A mineral sunscreen if regular sunscreen causes burning, just don't apply too close to the eyes.
Good sunglasses are best
@@joannkodama2096 Too bad mineral sunscreens are too thick and pasty
@@80s_Boombox_Collector Try colorscience eye renewal! Expensive but best sunscreen for eyes.
You can try it but you can get it in your eyes easily when you lay down and forget it's on.
Thank you for your upfront honesty and not trying to sell any BS. I’ve never seen your videos before, but I’ll be looking out for them now. I’ll make sure to give your advice a try. God Bless
Thank you for all your great information. I am in my 60's and about 5 years ago I decided surgery was the way to go. Still saving!
How much was the estimate for the procedure, if you don’t mind me asking?
Cost me about $4000. You wont regret doing it.
Interesting video. I'm a physician myself but as we all know its too easy to overlook important issues in other specialties. I did not realize that some of those tightening creams could be seriously bad leading to dry eye disease. That said use for say a special occasion - in other words infrequent use - probably lowers the risk of serious issues. I've heard of people using preparation H - same stuff used for hemorrhoids elsewhere in the body - I was wondering whether this was harmful too created the same issues. Your thoughts on careful and occasional use of these creams etc would be appreciated. Thanks for an excellent tutorial.
Hey thanks for asking. I have heard the preparation H trick too. It seems plausible to help, however, if it hasn't been tested and we don't have clinical evidence to back it up - and that use would be off label, I caution away from it. I will have to look more closely at the ingredients to see if there is anything in it that could cause problems to the eyelids long term.
Can you elaborate on the surgery itself pease? How straightforward is it? Is it under general anesthesia? How long does it take? Are there complications? How long does it take to recover and see improvements? Any before and after photos would help too! Thank you!
Blepharo is local anesthetic so u r awake
I'm 75 & wore contact lenses from age 15 to my thirties, when I had an early form of "lasik", i.e. radial kerotomy, which allowed me to go without corrective lenses, at least partially!
However, I always felt that the decades of pulling down my eyelids to insert contacts, led me to have premature 'baggy eyelids'! So, I believe other factors, beside heredity, can affect
the tightness of your eyelids!
You're absolutely right, this is the reason!
I had RK surgery too. It wasn’t the best idea for me. But how could we know back in 1994.
Also I used to put cold things under my eyes to get that "soothe" feeling but I noticed it was making my eye darker and a little bit more puffy. I think it was due to the cold stopping circulation and the warmth keeps that circulation going. I stopped cold compressing and doing a little bit of acupressure and my under eye area became more aesthetically pleasing for me.
How do you do acupressure ?
Yes pls tell us
Yes, how d u do it?
Tell us please!
Hello ? Answer
I wouldn't use a " frozen spoon " the tissue around the eyes is delicate and the extreme cold on a metal spoon will actually freeze burn the surface, a cold spoon will suffice, just saying .
Does retinaldehyde cause the same kind of damage in the eye area as retinol? Also, aren’t the preservatives in the eye drops also a risk for causing dry eye issues?
That's a good question I want to know as well cause i use retinol to.
I had undereye bags when I was in my 40's. I felt I was ageing prematurely and I researched what I could do and I went to a Dermatologist and got laser under my eyes and it zapped away the bags and wrinkles. Today I am 68 the bags have slightly returned but it is ok, it is age appropriate.
Oh wow! I had no idea a dermatologist could zap a eye bag away. I have a small lil bag underneath my right eye thats bugging me and I want it gone! Imma contact a dermatologist asap. THANKS!
How much did it cost?
That was twenty years ago. I have no idea today. But what ever the price it is worth it.
How much was it back then?
@@cljmcclain how did he or she zap the eye bag away all those years ago… Was it through a laser or what? What exactly did he or she do if you can remember that… As I say I know it was a good while ago. Thanks
Hi Doctor,
Thank you for your video.☺️
I have two questions :
Can taking hyaluronic acid supplements
Increase bags under your eyes?
Also can collagen supplements help with eye bag?
Thank you
This is my personal experience as a 37year old woman, who didn't get into skincare until 35..
1) Elevate your head at night, to avoid fluid buildup. If you wake up with a stuffy nose and undereye-bags that goes away during the day- this could help
2) When doing your morning skincare routine, lean your head back and massage from the nose and outwards and upwards with your favourite cream on your fingers.. It "drains" some of the fluid. Don't pull your skin, but do keep a little bit of pressure there..
3) drink more water!!
Dehydrated skin looses elastisity.. I'm so bad at this, but working on it. Just drink more water. Period.
4) Keep two teaspoons in your fridge overnight and put them on your undereyes in the morning, it helps to depuff
5) Keep your skin hydrated. Aloe vera is really good for this
6) if all else fails, cream used to relieve hemroids can do wonders for your eyebags. Ask your doctor first before trying this tip though
what about warm masks? my optometrist told me they’re better for eye strain and can help with the puffiness too by helping the unwanted liquids flow away
Mask is a 4 letter word at this point 🤣 😷
Doc has another video where he discusses warm compresses to reduce dry eye symptoms. Different treatment for different issue.
Favourite part of the video was learning how to prevent eye bags as much as possible and the tips that help reduce it even if it isn’t all the way reduced
Ok
I use a gel, Renu 28, which I put under my eyes, directly on the baggy area. (I don’t know why anyone would put such a product on the eyelid.) Renu 28 has dramatically reduced my level of under-eye bagginess.
Where can I buy it ?
Love that you started with natural treatments and addressed the genetic component
I had bags that were just a little kind of puff. I noticed when I stopped using alot of my face products and started just a good retinoid ( I have sensitive skin so I use kinami7 retinoid) this helps collagen and isn't applied under my eye but my face only. It has improved my skin texture and my face looks more youthful ( glow, less sagging and brighter) this I guess helped tighten the under eye skin and now I look like I have 8 hours sleep a night lol
I thought you said it was not applied to your under eyes! So how did it help?
@@CGeeThompkinsproducts you apply on your face can migrate and spread all over your face by travelling through the bloodvessels
Yepper, it's age for me. I'm 71, and never wear makeup. I do struggle with fluid retention, but the bags are with me even on my low-salt diet. I have the ugliest eyebags ever. They show up as big lumps under each eye. I wear sunglasses all the time to hide my lumpy bags. I've considered surgery but I'm so nervous about that. I've seen so many women who go in for cosmetic surgery and they come out worse than they went in. I don't care about wrinkles or eyelifts, I just want the bags gone.
Under eyelid surgery is different. There is no tightening of skin or fillers, just the removal of the bags. You will look like you, but better. Go for it.
@@ccubito thanks for the encouragement.
I'm also 71 with the same problem, horrible big bags under my eyes. Sis just let's enjoy our old age regardless of them.
@@mariapereira5500 Yes, I'm trying my best to just live with them. I guess I should be happy I'm alive.
My dad and I both had very noticeable under eye bags. People always remarked that I looked tired, when I wasn’t. After hearing that over and over, I went and got the bags removed with lower blepharoplasty. That was almost thirty years ago. So glad I did. It was a minor surgery. Don’t be nervous about it. My dad got his done too.
Dr. Allen, thank you so much.🙏 You're always on point.👍👍
thanks so much😎
I've had eye bags since I was born, it's hereditary, some of my siblings have them too. I drink strong Black Tea in morning and afternoon, acts as diuretics. Wake up noticing the eyebags have reduced significantly almost disappeared. I live in Africa and cannot risk the surgery. Thanks Doctor, fantastic video👍
Thanks for sharing!
Wow👏👏impressed by your honest, enlightening and convincing sharing...very helpful in learning how to remove eye bags which bother many women. Thanks a lot , Doc🤗🤗
My pleasure, Brenda!
Thankyou for all your kind advice.... When a person has been through trauma, abuse any excruciating painful stuff.... I recall you mentioned the affect on one's vision, so obviously puffy eyes also play a part... my question is can there be full recovery does it depend on age?....
Trauma can play a lot of roles on the eyes, trauma directly to the eye can result in tissue damage and therefore swollen eyes such as in the case of a black eye. Severe enough trauma can damage the orbit which can lead to muscle and nerve damage which can often lead to double vision. In both of these cases, the tissue does often heal over time, even for nerve damage - this can heal over the course of 6 months or so. Swelling of the eyelids usually resolves over a few days to weeks due to trauma, but obviously, better with treatment (like cold compresses). What I find most fascinating is how trauma can lead to hysterical amblyopia - which is where even though your eyes see just fine, your mind makes you think you are seeing blurry (or not at all). Crazy how powerful the mind can be.
I’ve had eyebags since I was a toddler :( I tried sleeping, compressing :(
That can be tough, have you ever been seen by a doctor for it?
Same :(

Finding this video is great for me because i have dryness in my eyes n also help to find that salty foods are not good for my eye's bags,. Thank you, doctor!!!
Hey Doctor Eye Health, could you make some recommendations on what type of desk lamps or room lighting, in general, is best for eye health?
Super good suggestion! I should see what I can do. In the meantime, I use a few desk lamps from Dr Lite drliteusa.com/?wpam_id=5 (I have even done some sponsored posts for them as I love them so much) If they are out of your price range you can use code DR10%JA for 10% off. Also check out this video for a few pointers: ruclips.net/video/FPrVZlqZsEo/видео.html
I have always had under eye bags even as a child...for my 50th i will treat myself to upper and lower eyelid surgery
Same here
Me too. Best $$ I've ever spent.
Happy the video helped!
@@jeansaunders1871 how often do u have to get it done. is it a one time surgery?
@@girlygirl4life296 once the bags are removed surgically they never return.
My eye bags are located right on the top of my cheekbones. My Mother had exactly the same problem. Genetics plays a role. I've tried using cold eye masks, but really hasn't worked. Sleeping with one's head elevated can increase neck and spinal problems. I appreciate all the information given but for temporary tightening of that area, I've used Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx EYE - it actually works. NOT for everyday though as I believe it will dry out the under eye area.
nothing works but surgery I think, it is as you said a generic problem not because any or wrong habbits
Besides salt, another thing that adds to eye bags is carbs. Consuming carbs before bedtime will guarantee puffy eyes. Most people with a high carb diet seem to have baggier eyes. Also, keep a small stone facial roller in the freezer and use it to help smooth out bags. Feels good and works well.
Jogging (any exercise that make you sweaty) somehow got rid of my eye bugs as I stay in front of monitor for a min 9 hours a day 5 days a week. As soon as I stop jogging, the eye bug returned. Perhaps it's only for me. For others it may not work. Cold compression also helps a lot for me.
Oh my goodness!! This is an excellent idea!! This was part of my problem, nothing, absolutely nothing recommended was working for me. The eye bags appeared out of nowhere! But, very interestingly, they appeared after I could not exercise or expend! I tried home remedies and creams and cold, my diet was also scrutinized (everything!) and it was stunning me because it wouldn't go away.
Proper ambulation is a fabulous thought and one I would have never even stumbled upon! Thank you!
(Admittedly I do not move around enough I limit my intake so that I don't gain weight, but I have incidentally reduced my own movement!) I have been needing to improve my physical health and I have been lazy to do so, but maybe my "vanity" will be the trigger I need! Again, I can't thank you enough!
Try a bug spray. It’s much easier than jogging.
@@peggycartmill8019 🤣
So now I’m depressed. I started noticing under eye bags a couple years ago when I lost 22 kg. after never having bags in my life ( except for late nights) Now I understand, it’s just old age! Wonderful! 😱😊
Could you please elaborate on the problem of dry eyes caused by the use of creams like Retin A, as you quickly mentioned on this video. Thank you very much.
Great suggestion! Yes, I will see what I can put together
I use Oil of Olay eyes with collagen peptide it works for me and also salt is not your friend... And also I buy equate brand of collagen and put it in black coffee...Thanks for the video!!
I've had bags under my eyes since I was a child. Wish I didn't. I'm 74 now, and that's life.
Use hemorrhoid cream. It works well for eye bags. Fashion models use it.
Mine are so bad, always been there. Putting anything on them is like putting a juicy hamburger over your stomach then saying you should be full!
@@Trakehner20 LOL, that's funny.

My favourite part of the video medical explanation of eye allergies+histamine release and also last point - many under eye bag creams containing preservatives that can lead to dry eyes (damage of meibonian glands of eyelids)
Thanks for the graphic depiction of why I've developed a set of luggage under my eyes as I aged, as I never had any sign of bags when younger. Hard pass on the surgery though, my fear of it from past experience is far greater than any vanity I still have left! lol
My mother had eyelid surgery. It adversely affected her tear ducts and now all the moisture from her eyes just runs down her face.
@@lyndabrattoya5856 That's terrible! I've had a number of failed surgeries, so definitely not a fan!!!

Yes I love natural ways to get eye bags and dark circle eye
💯 Noted!
I've been drinking bone broth for a couple of months now - which has lots of collagen - and an unexpected benefit is that my undereye bags are much less pronounced. This video explains a possible reason: The collagen may be strengthening the septum holding the fat back.
Bone broth of which animal. Kindly reply
Thank you Doctor. I had under eye Botox (5units) around each eye one year ago. I developed extremely swollen eyes as soon as the Botox took effect. A year later, i am left with under eye bags that create shadows and give me dark circles . Do you think my septum could have been affected?
doctor
I tried the cold compress thing and my eyes really don't like the cold. They were still swollen afterwards lol.
Where you doing the cold compress for eye bags or eye puffiness from allergies? Maybe the cold compress was too cold?
Same
Exactly
LOL me too
Maybe try soaking a rag in vinegar and water and let it set on your eyes for a bit? Vinegar is great for the skin. It smells while wet but when dry leaves no odor.
Thanks for ur videos!! I’ve used collagen eye masks for a while now & it rlly helps w my dark eye circles / eyebags ! 🤩 can u do a video on the best astigmatism contact lense brands?

@@DoctorEyeHealth thank you!
You can get rid of astigmatism easily by rubbing castor oil on your upper and lower eye lids. I was diagnosed with and astigmatism and wore the contact lense for that and they always irritated my eyes for as long as I wore them. I started doing the castor oil treatment and went to another eye doctor months later and he could not see that I had an astigmatism and gave me a regular contact prescription and now I wear contacts that are comfortable again.
@@pastelovez Thank you is eye bags conected with kidney problems??
P
question? so do I use cold compress every day if so what the best time of is day good ?
I would say morning.
Question: after cooling the puffy eyelids, how long will the puffiness stay away?
Half a day.
Probably a few hours after the compression
I've had bad eye bags most my life. I just got used to looking half dead
Same here lol
lol 😂
Think I might try that surgery. I wear glasses when I don't need to lol
I find that the oils around my eyes, bags and eyes included, really improve in fluidity for smoothing out problems anytime I've consumed a lot of Carrot juice and beetroot juice. Do you think that is a good preventative solution to problems in later life, or even a potential treatment, along with CBD for smooth muscles not inflamming/ reversing tension and pressure in general?
I am not certain of the mechanism of action behind the carrot and beetroot juice but eating healthy and eating whole foods (as well as staying hydrated) is very good for your skin and overall health. CBD is an interesting topic too. I know cbd is great for relaxation and anxiety, at the moment, I do know research has shown CBD can increase eye pressure, at least transiently, so I don't recommend you put it in the eyes lol.
@@DoctorEyeHealth It's interesting that being stoned leads to red eye! 😂 But I do think vitamins A, D, E, and K work together. Personally, I've noticed that since making an extra effort to consume natural vitamin A (I had been deficient in it) the halogen light bulb wrinkles I seem to have developed on my skin in the past seem to be more ironed out. It would make sense that fat soluble vitamins help collagen in an overall way.

Take note, that if you have had your gallbladder removed, your stomach will no longer receive the Bile it needs to remove all of the fat soluble vitamins from your foods. Even with a diet of raw foods. Or a diet in general the Gallbladder is the only gland to make this bile.
Most MDs have no clue they are setting you up for a slow starvation of those extremely needed fats soluble vitamins when they do those Gallbladder removals.
Stomach stapling, reductions & lapland procedures causes this very same thing but with a much more concerning reaction to any over eating esp with high fatty foods.
Our Body needs good fats in our diets that is a must have fats converts quickly to cell growth.
Vitamin D3 is not only a Fat soluble Vitamin it is also a co-hormone believe it. With out D3 Not D2. Our body starts packing fats all over the body and inside the organs, the body just dosent know what to do with it, especially if your storage D2 is not converting to D3, the Fats have to put some where. E.G.. Brain. Lungs. Heart. Liver. Kidneys and Around our Bellies Thighs Rump Water storage.
With low D3 we will have high cholesterol levels of all types, this is our bodies way of telling us we have a D2 Conversion problem to D3 or we have D3 deficiency as cholesterol is quite literally our brains food. Taking Statens will remove the excess cholesterol in our livers but that also removes our brains food source, which is not good at all.
Now this is also another definite tell that our bodies are
Low in D3. Is always having high blood pressure no matter what you do to reduce the Systolic B.P. along with Air hunger.
Loss of your teeth do to crumbling, cavities from the teeth crumbling. Sleep disorders. Depression. O.C.D. O.D.D. Bi-Polar disorder are all signs you are extremely deficient and should get your Labs done by a reputable laboratory and always get copies of your labs so you yourself can learn how to read thos lab sheets and see what your Doctor determines as a bit low. fine or within range.
Each one of those comments is a red flag. If you're having any of the above and have had your gallbladder removed or a Stomach stapling for at least 4 years? get those labs. The Optimal range is when we are shooting for 80 to 120 with severe symptoms we're shooting for 130 until the most difficult symptoms subside.
Once diagnosed with D3 deficiencies your MD should never do your D3 labs again without taking you off D3 for at least 4 months so you do not get false highs in your labs and have your MD request you stop due to D3 being too high (Falsely too high) each time one stops their D3 protocols and one dips back to low double digits 10-20 (which most MDs think is perfectly fine it is not) so, getting your levels up again will be much harder each time you have to stop for a correct lab test.
The Females in Child producing age will have issues with getting pregnant keeping the pregnancy if low enough will make you appear infertile.
D3 deficiencies cause Ovarian cysts, fibroid growths of the uterus breast cervix and every other type of cancer as D3 is your first line of defense against cancers (this should be your very first lab test if you are having any one of these symptoms) these are abnormal but with low D3 should be the first check. Having heavy menstruation for a much longer time as well. D3 is also our first defence in fighting Cancers. Low D3 makes losing weight very difficult if not impossible and can help your body to become weightloss resistant.
As we can see being deficient in D3 can be a serious health risk to you your pregnancies and your offspring if born to a Mother who was low during the pregnancy. Your Children should also be placed on D3 also if when you learn of your deficiency.
Those who are of a darker Melanin are almost always deficient to the extrem.
Sunscreens that have a high SPF should be used sparingly it's also the best if you sit in the sun with your upper chest and eyes exposed to get sunlight helps the body to start and /or reset your natural internal clock. Which is a very good thing.
I hope I answered all of your questions that I could remember anyways. If I missed some feel free to send direct message to me and I will do my best to answer those I missed.
Be well and Be Blessed in all you do. Enjoy your Weekends everyone.

@@margolockwood9323 Thanks. I'm actually very worried about my sister's health. She just had a psychosis, her physical health is terribly deteriorated. I'm actually terrified! Mum brought her in to have her gallbladder removed as a child, after she had already been to death's door and back as a baby. We've got developmental health issues in the family, that's all I can say, I guess. It makes me furious, to be honest. Do you know if there's any way to help her with fat soluble vitamins? I was hoping that the liver could be as functional and replace the gallbladder's job without harm
@@slambangwallop
Sad to hear about your Sister especially, but knowing that your family is predisposed to potential D3 Deficiencies is a good start. If she has not had a Gullbladder since childhood now would be a good time to get her D3 labs to know her levels and if she is lower than 80 now would be the time to get her on the D3 Protocol. Mental illness is a huge symptom of D3 deficiency but this can also be caused by other issues as well all of those issues need to be looked into. The only way I am aware of to get absorption of Fat soluble Vitamins is by using OX Bile at least 15 to 20 mins before eating for absorbing through the Tummy. There are some topical creams you can use also. (In my experience my deficiency was to severe I was a 4 when The deficiency was found)
I had to go by way of OX Biles and eating foods high in D3.
Once the D3 goes the B12 and all B Complexes go soon after with Folate and Ferritin which helps heps with Anemia. I am also blessed with Pernicious Anemia also. So, I live on the B12 protocol with daily injections and the B complexes Folate Ferritin.
Low B12 causes nerve damage and painful joints, arthritis, vision issues such as 3D and blurred Vision to name a few. Once the body dips to below 200 in B12 the Nerves protective Mylan coatings on the ends degrade/dissolve leaving the nerve endings exposed tangled and becomes very unbearable pain wise. Go getting your levels up to the minimum 800 to 1200 and higher with nerve damage for me up to the 1500s was when I started seeing relief in my muscles joints walking easier less numbness and pins needles trigger fingers trigger wrist twitching eyes skin sensitivity. With some symptoms being diagnosed as M.S. sadly. Many lose their ability to walk some lose their ability to talk others become incontinent, many have all the symptoms while others have a few others have a list of but are walking talking Without issues and are not incontinent. Which is a great as t thing thank the GOD Almighty for saving me from that humiliation. Many of us will be in need of one of some mobility tools such as Walkers, walking canes, even wheelchair bound. Until we can get our levels up for some time without breaks in our Injections to allow our the cells in the body to fill up with the needed B12 and complex' that support the other two vitamins minerals micro minerals. I am now at a 174 and have a long way to go on both D3 and B12, an B Complexes. Of my deficiencies. Its hard to imagine that A lack of vitamins due to a lack of knowledge by ones MD can litterly cripple you, make your brain eyes hearing go from good to hearing aids coke bottles and swiss cheese brains.

Hi Dr. Thank you for posting this video. What is the difference blepharoplasty methods, inside the eye lid or from outside and which is best?
Inside the eyelid will hide scarring, however with a good surgeon and if you heal well, most people can never tell .
