Eyelid wrinkles not only increase in number and depth but also shift in orientation with ageing. After 40, the dominance of a particular orientation in the upper eyelid image is associated with broader periorbital wrinkle severity, providing a novel quantitative index for fine‐grained ageing assessment. Abstract Objective Periorbital ageing, manifested
