Hi What could be the cause of my under-eye puffiness?

Hi

I've had diabetes type 1 for almost 27 yrs.I'm now 32.There's this unusual kind of puffiness that i've started noticing under my eyes only recently and especially when I smile,it gets all the more prominent.All my tests -thyroid,Hba1c,kidney related are normal.I've noticed puffiness under the eyes of other people also but mine seems different.What do I do about it?Are there any specific tests that i need to undergo?
