    John I’m not sure that’s something you want to wait around with and see if it gets better. I would give my pdoc a call and set up an appointment. I don’t think that’s a normal side effect at all

    I think being on med for 11 years kind of scrap my vision...

    My eyesight is definitly lower than it was.

    My worry is that I have been on 100mg since november 17 and it's not improved ... in fact worse .

    Think I had minor panic attack today as well so that may have made eyes worse .

    Thanks for the comments tho much appreciated
