Getting wrinkles can be due to many things.
1. dehydration (devide your total body weight in 1/2. The number you come up with is how many ounces of water you should drink every day).
2. smoking (cigarettes or weed). wreaks havok on the skin texture and can cause wrinkles, cellulite, cancer, etc..
3. wiping/drying eyes too hard (for example: when you get out of a pool you rub your eyes dry hard causing the skin to be stretched and pulled. Over time will cause wrinkles).
4. Too much sun exposure. (too much tanning causes premature aging).
5. Squinting (squinting your eyes such as being in the sun will cause wrinkles over time.
If you are worried about it a lot then you can go to a skin doctor and get a prescription strength "alpha hydroxy" eye cream which will smooth out fine lines over time. Since you're young then that would be a good start and should help to keep your skin fresh, smooth and young looking for as long as possible. Over the counter stuff just moisturizes and don't really have enough % of alpha hydroxy to do anything. Wear sunblock. Make sure it's for the face because some of them can have heavy creams which can clog pores.
Good luck!

You might be squinting in the sun, so I suggest wearing sunglasses when you're in bright sun. I'd also wear an eye cream with at least an SPF of 15.
Sometimes pushing your face into your pillow can cause wrinkles around the eyes and on the sides of the face. It's especially true if you sleep on your side(s). I always sleep on my back, and I make sure that my pillow won't allow my face to sink into it (I have a regular pillow, but I put one that's about the size of my head on top of it to keep my face from sinking when I sleep on my back).
