i started taking 75mg of effexor xr in june,2002. in sept,2002 I had a severe retinal detachment. this casued permanent damage to my sight. the doctors said that effexor xr was not a reason for this detachment. my 21 year old daughter started taking effexor xr in jan,2004 and in march ,2004 she also has a retinal detachment. luckily she suffered no permanent eye damage. she no longer takes effexor xr. we both wore glasses but her prescription was much higher than mine. even after my daughter's incident the doctors said that effexor xr was not related. has anyone else ever suffered a detachment or other eye problem from taking effexor xr?
