Eye creams or not

Hello Everyone, I always hear conflicting state kehte about eye creams. I personally don’t use eye creams much. If I use eye cream, then I use the Estée Lauder one which I tagged below. I like that one and I think it makes a difference. I tried using TO caffeine one but it dried out my eye area. I have heard about a hack to mix it with moisturizer so I am going to try that. But what do you think about eye cream? Do you think it’s overpriced moisturizer or do you actually benefit from any eye cream.

I think it really depends on the formulation and your own preferences. For example some people can't put retinol serums near their eyes, so an eye cream with retinol is a good alternative. Caffeine is also great for the eye area and it's hardly ever included in non-eye specific products. But when an eye cream has pretty much the same ingredients as a moisturiser from the same line, than I don't think it's worth paying loads more for a smaller tube.
