Greetings
Common causes for dark circles and sunken eyes in children include genetics, nasal congestion from allergies or colds (known as "allergic shiners"), and thin skin which makes blood vessels more visible.Sunken eyes specifically can be a significant sign of dehydration, especially if accompanied by illness. Other contributing factors include fatigue from poor sleep, iron deficiency, or increased screen time.
