Hi,

For how long have you been on arimidex?

Are you having the mentioned eye symptoms?

These are ot know to be related to be due to arimidex in studies or documented reports and you could be having them due to other causes.

Consult your eye specialist and see what he/she has to say.

Let us know if you have any more doubts and keep us posted about what your doctor advises.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

I just made my bi-annual visit to my opthamologist.

Two years ago no material change:  I've had the same glasses for six years and the same prescription sun glasses for almost ten.  This year, cataracts such that he advised me to consider surgery, if not now within a year or two.

I've been on Armidex a little over three years.  

I asked if this relatively sudden onset could have been the caused by the Armidex; of course, he could give me no definite answer, but he did say that cataracts are somewhat more likely to occur in those who had taken the drug.

Perhaps this is also the case with other eye problems.
