Dear Docs, I have been using contact lens for about past 7 years and working in IT company seeing computers.In recent days I could see dark circles around my eyes and i feel like my eyes went inside bit from face. Can someone advice me on this and suggest me some drops if these was due to eye dryness. Thanks much for your help in advance.

Increased system time can cause this.

You could use a tear substitute like lubrex eye drops 4 times/day to both eyes. Apply a hypoallergenic non perfumed moisturising cream around the eyes , ONLY EXTERNALLY, avoiding areas very close to the eye.
