A member asked:

I contracted an std and noticed that the area around my eyes went dark overnight. please explain what happened and how to treat?

Not sure: what you have. I dont know of an STD that causes eyes to darken. You should seek medical evaluation so they can see your eyes and help make the best plan of action
