    Yes, it s true. Although many people get the sunken because of the born-to-be condition, there are many people cause this because of the bad habit in using eyes. Smoking may affect your normal work of eye nerves. Thus, you'd better not smoke a lot which will be bad for your health and eyes.

    Well, I have to tell you that smoking can cause sunken eyes. So you'd better give up smoking. As we know that by smoking, it can produce cyanide which is a retinal toxin. And according to some research, Smokers may develop toxic amblyopic problem. In some cases, it can cause sunken eyes. Besides, if you keep smoking, it actually does harm to your health, not only the eyes, but also the body organs. Anyway, for long term effects, it can lead to lazy eyes, and hearing loss. And also, it can degrade the night vision. So it can be kind of dangerous.
