Dark Eye Bags. Done Laser Treatment. Are They Allergies?

I am a healthy, active 26 year old male with terrible dark eye bags. Skin products, as you probably would have guessed, have done nothing. I'm wondering at the end of the day what I can possibly do to rectify this... I look about 10 years older than I am, which is extremely annoying.

I'm aware of laser treatment, restalyne and surgery for eye bags, but I'm wondering if there are any behavioural things on my end that could be causing them. Are they related to looking at a screen for too long? And how do I find out if I have allergies that are causing this? Otherwise I'm active and seem to get enough sleep.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,
Dark eye bags are commonly seen because of exposure to sunlight or because of deficiencies of essential nutrients or because of allergic reactions to cosmetics.
They are usually not related to looking at screen for long.
Coming to your second question how to find out allergies are causing this. If you eczema of the eye lid skin following application of cosmetics or drugs, then it indicates that most probably it is because of allergies.
Thank you
