  Yes, it is possible for you to cause the dark circles under the eyes because of using accutane which contains a lot of stimulating inner materials. Some people may be sensitive at the skin after using the accutane. Once they get the stimulation, the eye nerves will be blocked too. That is why you cause the dark circles under the eyes. You could use some oil essentials to reduce the dark circles under the eyes.

  So, from what you said, I can see that you suspect that accutane would give rise to dark circles under eyes, which would damage your looks and your confidence. Anyway, despite the fact that those accutane could help to remove some pimples on your face, but since it is acid, which could cause some allergic reactions to your skin. However, dark circles would not be generated, take it easy.
