Can contact lenses cause a subconjunctival hemorrhage?
Yes, wearing contact lenses can indeed cause a subconjunctival hemorrhage. This happens when there is a sudden increase in pressure on the eye, which can occur when putting in or taking out contact lenses. Additionally, long-term use of contact lenses can also cause subconjunctival hemorrhage due to oxygen deprivation to the eyes.
