Does Eye Strain And Thyroid Cause Puffy Eyes?

Yes, over a period of a few months I have been waking up with puffy eyes. I work from home on a computer screen sometimes 12 hours a day. Now the under eye puffiness is not going away and I m wondering if this could be eye strain or a thyroid problem?

Hi. This well could be a low thyroid problem so I'd suggest you have your doctor do blood testing to check for that
