havoni and vision problems

[inhaled]

Week ten on Harvoni treatment, virus free on 4th week lab work. Six weeks ago I had my eyes checked for a new prescription because I noticed that my current glasses were not reading well. A few weeks later I came in to get my RX in order to get my contacts renewed and much to my Doc's and my own surprise my vision had gone from 20/40 to 20/50. Weird though not consistently, just off and on, not as easy as just "night-blindness" or my other thought of allergies. I very rarely drive at night, so noticing vision changes sparodically during the day only, allergy "snotty" or not. I asked my liver Specialist of any ties of my vision changes to the Harvoni and she was sure that their was no documented findings stating any such thing. Anyone beg to differ???

We just returned from our almost 2 month driving trip- over 9000 miles altogether, and I really noticed what you were experiencing as far as reading street signs, etc, Magnum.  it was down right frightening sometimes.  I am planning to see my eye dr with the next few weeks to see how much change there is and if it is better than it was on my annual eye exam in April.  

Hope it improves!

Yesterday I went to the optometrist and after my Harvoni treatment, my vision went from 20/30 to 20/50. Now, I am able to read without glasses (which I needed under the Harvoni treatment) but I have problems seeing distance as clear. Street signs from about 100 feet away look blurry. He said wait... and see if things improve after the Harvoni withdrawal. I will see him in a month and post results...

You can read my post "Blurry Harvoni", in which I stated that during the Harvoni treatment, my vision was blurry reading my computer. I paid $180 for new glasses and it cleared up my vision. However, after the treatment was over, my glasses made the computer screen look blurry. I'm going to see an optometrist this week to see what's going on and will post...
