Plaquenil

[Suzan]

Has anyone on plaquenil had trouble with their eyes? My lyme doc has been pushing me to get my eyes checked. I finally called the eye doc today and found out it will be covered under my medical coverage (I don't have coverage for routine exam which is why it took me so long to call). I told the lady on the phone I was taking plaquenil and I have very blurry vision. Shs said "Oh! You're taking Plaquenil? We need to get you into the next available appointment". So I go on Thursday.

 

•blurred vision, light sensitivity, seeing halos around lights

 

I don't see halos but I have the other. I've had light sensitivity forever though. I told my lyme doc I just wanted to stop taking the plaquenil. I have already reduced it from 2 to 1 pills. She does not want me to stop taking it unless I have to.
