Difficult weather conditions take away the skin&#8217;s natural moisture and cause dryness around the eyes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Age:<\/strong> One&#8217;s skin starts to lose moisture and elasticity as age increases.

The habits include using harsh skincare products, excessive rubbing, or scrubbing the eye area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Medical Conditions:<\/strong> Skin conditions like Eczema, Psoriasis, Dermatitis, and more can cause dry patches around the eyes.
