Can Hypothyroidism Cause Blurred Vision and headaches?

I've been on levoxyl for 4 months now due to hypothyroid symptoms and positive antibodies. Can being hypo cause blurred vision and headaches? It's driving me crazy. Also, how long before you see results being on levoxyl? My endo. just increased it to 50mcg about 3 weeks ago but I still don't feel any different. I've been on the medicine for over 4 months! Any insight please? Thanks so much.

yes it can .I started to see improvement after about 3 weeks on levothyroxine.Everyone is different though and it depends on your dosage. Hang in there .It will get better.
