Can low iron be a cause of dark circles under your eyes?

Having low iron could be a type of anemia. Anemia can cause someone to have pale skin. The skin around your eyes is the thinnest and most delicate area of your entire body. It is also more translucent. Therefore, the capillaries, which are much closer to the surface of the skin around your eyes, are more apparent. Having pale skin could add to the obviousness of dark under eye circles.
