Hi Larry,
I called and Valtrax probably would have helped had I taken it when the blurry vision first started. It's more effective when taken immediately aftering noticing symptoms and it's been four weeks since my vision got blurry so doc said it wouldn't really do anything.
I have learned a lesson- if I get blurry vision again I call the eye doc and regular doc and get on valtrax and steroid eye drops. Good news is my viision is much better and I'm being tapered off the eyedrops. I see eye doc again on the 30th. And I hope not to have to go back unless it's for something normal like an eye exam.
