What Causes Eyelashes To Be Dark Purple With Kidney Trouble?

My husband and sister -in-law both have history with kidney stones and infections frequently, I notice with my husband when he starts having problems with kidneys, his eyelids at base of eyelashes turn a dark purple color. Could you tell me why it does this?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
They have history of kidney stone and infection. In kidney disease there can be oedema on face below eye. So they should go for complete kidney function test. Go for ultrasound abdomen, urine routine and microscopic examination and serum creatinine level. It will give you exact idea, Then take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
