Case Report: Intracorneal Hemorrhages Seen with Scleral Contact Lens Wear and Netarsudil Therapy

CONCLUSIONS There are few reports of intracorneal hemorrhages associated with scleral contact lens use and even fewer associated with the use of netarsudil. This case proposes several possible causes of the intracorneal hemorrhages, including topical rho-associated kinase inhibitors, contact lens wear, and trauma. Further studies are needed to determine if netarsudil is associated with intracorneal hemorrhages, to understand the sequelae of intracorneal hemorrhages in netarsudil therapy, and to recommend management when intracorneal hemorrhages manifest with netarsudil use.
