Why is the skin underneath our eyes so sensitive n thin??

Whenever i rub my eyes or something it becomes red instantly compared to other parts of my face, is there a special purpose for this??

Why is the skin underneath our eyes so sensitive n thin??
The skin around your eyes is the thinnest on your body and the capillaries are SO close to the surface thus the immediate redness when stimulated by rubbing. I think I read that the epidermis there is only 1 mm thick. Take care of it and DON'T rub or expose it to sun or tanning beds! You will avoid the "saggy-baggys" that way.
Reply:I'm not really sure but I think its thin because if its going to be too thick we would have a hard time to open our eyes
Reply:maybe its allergies....
Reply:Co'z there is no layer of fat in that area.So there is nothing to protect it.
