eyelids
Lashes grow here
Eyelids are the folds of skin that close over the eyes.
They protect the eye and spread moisture across its surface with each blink.
Heavy eyelids signal drowsiness: I could barely keep my eyelids open.
Drooping eyelids may indicate fatigue, aging, or medical conditions.
Cosmetics and surgery often focus on the eyelids as expressive features of the face.
