I'm 23 years old, and my eyes are getting hooded I don't know why! I used to have deepest eyes but few months ago my right eye started to get puffy I tried cold and hot pads but nothing worked, now both eyes are puffy around they eye folds, inner corners and almost the whole non-mobile eyelid, should I see a plastic surgeon, a dermatologist or an Ophthalmologist?!

Answer: Bulges in eye The inner eye bulge is a fat pocket. If it bothers you, it can be reduced in size. The outer region is likely the lacrimal gland which can be reinforced and supported to the upper inner aspect of the orbital rim.

Answer: See an Oculoplastic surgeon Hank you for your question. The inner corner bulge is a fat pad and this can be surgically trimmed down to produce the desired smooth contour while avoiding an excavated, empty look. The bulge out to the outer corner is likely to be the lacrimal gland and this should be tucked up and sutured under the bony rim above it, but not removed. Best of luck!
