Detailed Answer:
Hello Madam,
Thank you for writing in to us at health care magic. This is Dr.Riyanka Chail answering your query.

Firstly, extremely sorry for your loss.You are a strong person and you need to be even more stronger emotionally.

Usually aging causes loosening of the muscles near eyelids which cause this condition.

Visible bags under the eyes can be treated using home remedies like using wet tea bags or coffee bags over the eyelids while keeping eyes closed. Also cold compresses can be used and under eye bag creams containing caffeine.

If cosmetically you want to get them removed then you can consult a dermatologist regarding laser resurfacing and surgeries like blepharoplasty that tighten the skin near eyelids.

The best medicine to be healthy is laughter. I know its difficult but please try to engage yourself in other work and hobbies or having pets. Staying happy will help you alot.

Hope this answered your query.
