I have tired, puffy eyes. Can contacts or thyroid issues cause this?

Asked By:Sam0 in California, CA

I have tired looking eyes and face most of the time. I have no clue if this is due to wearing eye contacts for so many years even after the expiration date has passed within months or it's just my thyroids medical are to blame since I have high thyroids issues. Thank you.
