What's happening to my eyelids? (photos)

BigAl1990
I'm 26 and always had 'hooded' eyelids but recently (2years or so) they've been dropping and sagging. Now they're actually in my way if I look up where they weren't before! They also now look crepey and they are very dry. It's getting me down as I've always thought my eyes as a good feature on me but now I'm so embarrassed! If I use any eye creams they irritate and make the dryness worse. Surgery is out of the question at least for a few years as I haven't the money to spend on them unfortunately.
