What Do Small Veins On The Eyelid Indicate?
My eyelids have a few tiny red threadlike veins going through them and my eyelids are turning a kind of light brown and purplish color. I have had no injuries to my face or eyes and they do not hurt. They just look off so I cover them with makeup. What may be the cause of this?

tiny veins seen in eyelids are seen due to thin skin of your eyelids... these kind of veins are called spider veins and they are harmless but cosmetically they dont look good.. but if their is capillary heamangioma than it can be treated by lasers but normal veins seen on kids.. theirs no treatment available
