Dermatologist 's  Response
hi,
thank you for posting on HCM.
as per your history, you have indentations due to eyeframes.
-- do not worry much.
-- these are temporary impressions on your skin/fat/ muscle, not on your skull.
--get your eye glasses adjusted by a optician.
-- also, you may switch to contacts, if you feel comfortable to avoid these impressions.
hope, it helps.
wishing you a healthy life.
thank you
