A member asked:
Why do people with type 1 diabetes have sunken and puffy eyes (eye bags)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Misconception: Maybe in you limited experience with T1DM you know of one or more with this appearance. In the spectrum of those affected I find you cannot generalize this description to them at all. You would not be able to pick most out of a crowd.
