At around this time of life the near vision starts to deteriorate due to the normal aging process. This is easily remedied with reading glasses, but of course, it is not that easy to apply or remove make-up with a pair of reading glasses on. As an optometrist, I have seen some eye make-up that looks like it was intended to be make-up for the theatre. Problems arise if the make-up is applied too thickly or in the wrong place. While the oils in the skin and the eyes are cousins they are not compatible. If eyeliner is put on the eyelid margin then it can act as a bridge that that allows the skin oils to contaminate the tear oil.
