Options for Sunken Eyes?

I am only 19 years old and I'm 5'2 and I weigh about 100 pounds throughout my life. I have always gained and lost a few pounds, and the results always on my face first.

About 3 months ago, I was sick and didn't eat or drink much for 2 or 3 days. When I started gaining weight back, my eyes seem smaller and a little deeper into my head. Is there any particular type of food I should eat or another other way to make my eyes look how they used to? Are there any treatments I could undergo?
