Contact Lenses & Broken Blood Vessels: What You Need to Know

No. You should not wear your contacts until your eye has fully healed. Wearing your contacts could further irritate your eye and delay the healing process. Additionally, if the broken blood vessel is located near the contact lens, it could cause the contact lens to become displaced or even stuck to your eye. This can be very painful and could lead to further complications.

If you have a broken blood vessel in your eye, it is best to take a break from wearing your contact lenses until your eye has healed. This will help to prevent further irritation and complications. You should also see your eye doctor to rule out any other underlying medical conditions and get treatment if necessary.
