A number of you have raised this question to me so I thought I’ll take it together and address it here. Actually, I had this similar question many years ago and I raised it to a dermatologist. He was the one who got me obsessed about using sunscreen but guess what was his answer? “There’s no need to apply sunscreen on the eye area because that area would not get so much sun exposure compared to the rest of the face.” I didn’t show it to his face, but if he could read my thought bubble, he would have seen me blurting “WHAT???” Truly, I found his answer incredulous and of course I didn’t believe him; I would have been more convinced had his reason been something along the line that sunscreen can get into our eyes and irritate them.
