Vision or Eyes Question

[Galsal59]

As I learn the right timing of taking the other half dose of the T3/T4 med, I've seen that my eyes get incredibly red-rimmed and feel like they're tired as all get out.  This seems to occur if I've waited too long to take the next dose.  Additionally, my vision is much better when I'm not running out of a very low level of T3 now that I've started meds.

Is this just me with an odd scenario or common?  Curious.  I know, I've been full of questions and comments about things as they happen.  :)

I'm on dessicated.  FT3 was in the tank at the bottom of "normal".  FT4 was higher proportionately, but still under an optimal level.  TSH wasn't remarkable.

Glad it's better for you.

Are you on dessicated or cyto/synthroid?

My vision is affected by thyroid levels. Burning and focus problems.

When I had a TSH of 58 and FT4 off below the range, FT3 at the bottom edge from a med that did not work, I woke one morning with half dim vision and the rest was blurry for a very long 10 minutes. Better now.
