Need to consider: further work up by your doctor on what might be causing it? Have your thyroid evaluated, food allergies, when you notice it most (environmental allergies), and what makes it better. These clues will help you identify the cause.

My eyes look puffy, tired, saggy all day no matter how much sleep i get. It just started a few months ago and my right eye is red on my bottom eyelid. Could it be allergies? Could it be from a dog?
