If you were to blow too hard when useing the frenzel maneuver to clear your ears could it cause damage to the eye resulting in a change in iris color?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your iris cannot change color that way! it is possible to pop a blood vessel in the white area though. This would cause a red spot there.
