Hooded eyes tend to worsen as people age. The soft tissue around the eyes can become looser and cause the upper eyelids to sag. This is a natural part of the ageing process that is frequently exacerbated by factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and genetics. However, the extent to which hooded eyes worsen with age varies greatly between individuals and may not necessarily worsen in all. If you are concerned about such changes in your eye area, you can consider getting hooded eyelid surgery.
