Vision Issues
I’m curious to know if anyone has experienced any vision problems while taking hydroxycloroquin.
I have very dry eyes and they have seen a spot in behind my left eye . I am being sent to a Ophthalmologist to check further. I also am diabetic now also. Will let you know more when I find out more. Have appt the end of this month.
Ophthalmologist recommended eye exam for me once a year while on hydroxychloroquine
When I was taking hydroxycloroquin, I needed to have my eyes checked every 6 months because it can affect peripheral vision. It did not hurt me.
I too developed very dry eyes. Waking in the mornings was not fun. It felt like I had buckets of sand rubbing my eyes raw. I started using Restasis three months ago and I am finally to a point where my eyes feel moist again. It takes several months to work but it has helped greatly. I hope you can find something that will help your dry eyes too.
