With age, the skin of the entire body becomes thinner, including the skin under the eyeballs.

Also, as a result of heavy effort of the eyeball muscles, such as working in front of a computer, the area around the eyes may become hyperemic and, in the same mechanism as above, the skin around the eyes changes to a darker area.
