I am 29 years old. I do like my eyes but some parts i dont like. Under my eyes there is visable scarlet it makes my eyes look tired.

You would benefit from a brow lift.  Your eyebrows are too low on your forehead as well as you have a high vertical forehead.  A brow lift will lower your hairline, decrease the vertical height of the forehead and elevate the eyebrows.

Thank you for posting your question here.I will start by stating that my answer will be based on the limited information and pictures provided , for a more bespoke plan please consult with your plastic surgeon in person.
The skin under the eyes is fairly thin and in certain occasions tends to show the color of structures underneath such as veins etc . This can happen just by virtue of the skin being thin or due to other issues such as chronic allergy "allergic shiners", lack of sleep etc.
if you have none of those conditions and still suffer from dark skin under your eyes then you might want to discuss placing filler or fat in that area to thicken it , I would personally recommend fat transfer , it's more reliable, and natural, while filler if done wrong can lead to further discoloration or puffiness and more pronounced tear trough.
I hope this helps, best of luck!

The lower eyelid and upper midface area is difficult to assess entry.
There are a lot of variables to take into consideration.
Fundamentally facial aesthetics are based on the skeletal structure.
Attempting soft tissue solutions to treat problems based on skeletal structure, comes with its set of potential issues.
There are lots of treatment options, but all of them have a potential drawbacks.
Different providers may have different recommendations.
The treatment for this include restoration of the midface, using fillers, fat grafting, a midface lift, placement of implants, or removing fat from the lower eyelid with a lower eyelid blepharoplasty.
Each treatment option has some advantages and disadvantages.
Above all look for providers who have an excellent track record with a quality collection of before, and after pictures of previous patients who had similar characteristics.
Finding the right provider may require having multiple consultations.
Best,
