A member asked:
Is it normal to almost faint when you put on your contacts with a broken blood vessel in your eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible vasovagal…: event where there is a sudden drop in your blood pressure and you can feel faint, lightheaded, and sweaty. This is a common phenomenon that can occur when the eyes are touched or manipulated. I think that the broken blood vessel is unrelated and will likely resolve just as a bruise in the skin will resolve. All the best!
