Tear trough implant or custom infraorbital implant, which procedure would be beneficial for me? (photo)

My under eye is my most insecure part of my face and I've been searching for years for the right procedure. I had initially wanted to try tear trough fillers but a consult with a plastic surgeon told me that my skin in that area is too thin and there is a risk for blindness.
