📖What is Swelling Around Eyes?

Swelling around the eyes, or periorbital edema, is puffiness of the tissue surrounding the eyes that can affect the upper or lower eyelids, or both. It is often more noticeable in the morning and may improve throughout the day. While frequently caused by benign factors like allergies or lack of sleep, persistent swelling can be an early sign of kidney or thyroid disease.
