Should You Worry About Vision Loss from Viagra? - The People's Pharmacy

According to the article:

"The likelihood of serious vision loss from Viagra is low, but a recent study confirms it is real. Report ANY changes in eyesight promptly!

Such drugs are referred to as phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors, abbreviated PDE5Is. Most men are interested in the benefits of such medications. The risks, on the other hand, get much less attention. A study published in JAMA Ophthalmology, April 7, 2022 reveals an often overlooked complication of PDE5Is: vision loss from Viagra and similar ED drugs."
