i suffer from migraine and becauae of that i took venlafaxine. i took the medication in the morning and in the night my pupils got bigger and i started to see double and without focus light things in dark areas(kind of smeared vision).

i took one more time this medication and then the doctor told me to stop and see an eye doctor.

i went to eye doctor few days after i stopped the medication, while my pupils were not bigger anymore ****but i stiil saw kind of double and without focus light things(less than before but still not good).

the eye doctor's test was perfect and he told me that it was a side effect and in few days it will pass away.( spoiler: didnt happened) also the Neurologist's test was perfect.

few weeks later the doctor told me to take another medication called cymblata. i took the cymbalta and stopped after few days bacause i thought it bacame worse.

today i am 4 month after i took the first medication of the venlafaxine , and this side effect not pass away and it also make me floaters.

someone know if thare is a chance that the side effects will pass away one day?

i feel very well except this.

thanks.
