Why Is Pigmentation In The Eye Very Common In Black People! by Pweety4me(f): 6:16pm On May 07, 2011 |
What do you think? I once asked an optician why, and she said it's because we tend to produce more pigments or wurreva, but no exact reason!(maybe i just can't rememba sha ) It's even worser for those who live in Africa(hot countries) but what really is the cause?is it the food we eat?the sun?the water we drink?the people we look @? Do you have any pigmentation in your eye? Go on house!

Pweety4me:lwtmb My dear, wat u'r describing is wat is called "dirty sclera". it tends to be common with us africans because of a combination of environmental pollutants, excessive exposure to dust and harmful rays from the sun. I've wondered the same thing too several years ago. some eye drops may reduce this but truthfully, there's not much u can do to them once u have them. sorry. |

it's common among people living in Nigeria but I don't notice it among Nigerians in the US so it may have to do with the environment, hydration etc |

Pweety, Pigmentation or dark circles/eye bags? I know for us Asian, Pigmentation is common to our cheeks but most of us avoid it by putting moisturizer and SPF50 cream. If its really pigmentation, perhaps you guys could apply SPF50 cream on that area. |
Re: Why Is Pigmentation In The Eye Very Common In Black People! by Pweety4me(f): 4:52am On May 08, 2011 |
^^No not that type, the 1 of the eye, see the first pic. |
