Treatment requires daily application of moisturizing skin care products, as well as improved living conditions and collagen supplementation, which can usually provide relief.
2. Contact dermatitis: Commonly seen in people with newly changed skin care products, cracking of the upper eyelids may be caused by allergic reactions to medications or items such as hair dyes.

Cracked eyelids can also be caused by other reasons. If the above symptoms occur, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist to find out the cause of the problem and treat it accordingly.
