Worried about eyesight on Lamictal

Posted by Quintal on May 15, 2008, at 16:55:00

For the last few days I've had blurred vision in the distance field, it's as if my eyes aren't focussing properly on the distance. It's not blurred vision, as in dry eyes or anything like that, more like I've become more myopic - I just can't make out anything further than four or more armlengths away from me. If this persists I'm going to go back to my opticians and have my eyes tested. I had them done in Feburary and they hadn't changed in over two years, so it would be interesting to see if there's been any sudden deterioration.

Blurred vision has been reported two to three times as much in specific trials from the PI.
