Hi all recently I purchased tadalafil and have been taking 5mg for the last 4 days, taking tadalafil gave me excellent results with sexual dysfunction, allowed me to actually have an erection, brought back my flaccid size close to normal, and brought my erect size closer to normal than what I have seen since my symptoms began.

However I think I may be experiencing some possibly serious side-effects which are worrying me, and make me concerned as to whether I will be unable to use ED medication to treat peyronies now. Primarily since last night and today I've been experiencing some blurry vision in my left eye, redness in the left eye, and visual signs of irritation in the left eye.

To complicate this further I have for many years had a chronic eye condition called blepharitis (this can intermittently flare up causing eye irritation, lumps under eyelids, and yellow coloured particles to form on the eyelashes). My symptoms in the left eye also somewhat align with blepharitis as I also have more particles on the left eyes eyelash than usual & more than the right, although I do not recall before having blurred vision from blepharitis in the past.

I am aware that tadalafil can cause serious damage to peoples vision occasionally resulting in permanently weakened vision or blindness, however at the moment I am unsure as to whether I am experiencing...

A: Temporarily blurred vision in one eye as a side effect of tadalafil
B: Early signs of oncoming permanent damage to my sight from tadalafil usage
C: Blurred vision as a result of a blepharitis flare-up (possibly brought on or complicated by using tadalafil)


At the moment my plan is to stop my daily use of tadalafil for a few days, see if my symptoms improve and then if they do, return to my 5mg a day and see if this returns or not.

Definitely stop the medication and get an appointment with your ophthalmologist. Tell him/her all of the details as to how and when your symptoms began. Clinical studies in the early trials of Viagra gave many men a blue haze to their vision. There was a very rare occurrence of vision loss. This is a rare side effect though. Just get a check up. Your blepharitis is probably acting up.

To update: I have'nt taken any tadalafil for 24hours now and my sight is 100% back to normal again. My left eye is also less red and no blepharitis particles on the eyelashes.

I am looking at seeing a urologist in the next month hopefully.

I will stop taking tadalafil until i can speak to a urologist about this, regarding seeing an opthamologist if my vision is back to normal now is this still necessary?

(I am only asking as i have spent a great deal of money on healthcare recently & am aware i may need alot of money in the future if it comes to surgery or implantation).

It's scary. I have developed Eye floaters since around 2 years back, I have no idea if this is due to sildenafil/tadalafil usage, I quit using both of them long time ago, and it hasn't gotten any better. I am now a little worried about restarting my usage in fear of the floaters/vison issues getting worse.

I'm sorry to hear that Sonic, did you end up seeing a doctor about that? Or getting your eyes examined?

Alias: happy to know that the vision loss wasn't permanent. But please, stop taking any and all ED medications. This is very serious as you know. Unfortunately it's a rare side effects of these medications. Maybe some of the newer ed pills like avanafil will work for you, but I don't know if I would take that risk in your case.

Wait to see what the urologist says. Going to get your eyes checked isn't a bad idea also...

I got my eyes examined by an optician and everything was fine, I could see from long range normally. But the floaters are extremely annoying, especially when I stare at something bright. Or when it is just bright outside in general.

I've had lots of floaters since my teens. This year I've had two episodes of the lining tearing and creating huge floaters in each eye. A vitrectomy in one eye fixed one (for different reasons). Never considered sildenafil as a cause. Just another reason to stop. Opthalmologist didn't offer any causes besides old age for these episodes, just that they are big. But my meds are on their records.

My optometrist examined my eyes and say they are perfect. But I get floaters and bright lights. Optometrist said my symptoms sound like migraines, but without the headaches.

That's possibly aura migraines. I get those too, but they're very distinct in nature, with some blindness and pschedelic colors. Lasts about 10-15 minutes. Runs in my family.

I have had ocular migraines and when you first them it scares the crap out of you. You think you are going blind and having a stroke. They usually put me out for an entire day.

I've had them for about 25 years, at a rate of one to maybe four a year. Yes, I panicked the first time and called the doctor who also panicked and wanted me to go to the ER.

Now I only worry if/when it happens while driving. I was stuck in traffic once and had no choice but to stay there during the 15-minute episode. The partial blindness is in both eyes for the duration and it was good that traffic was crawling.

Happyman: I don't think that would be related to cialis. Read up on google earth, there are plenty of other causes!

Hey there! First off, it's great to hear that Cialis (tadalafil) is working well for your ED symptoms – I've also taken Cialis, and I can relate to the positive effects it has on erections and overall confidence. Like you, I noticed some temporary side effects when I started taking it, including mild headaches and a bit of blurred vision, which cleared up after a short time. These side effects tend to subside as your body adjusts, but it's definitely concerning when vision issues like yours persist or worsen.

Regarding your vision concerns, I think your plan to stop tadalafil temporarily and monitor your symptoms is a smart move. It sounds like you're being cautious, which is important. Since your vision has returned to normal after stopping, this might indicate that the blurred vision was related to tadalafil rather than permanent damage or just blepharitis. That said, it's hard to tell without professional advice.

While your sight is back to normal, I'd still recommend seeing an ophthalmologist just to rule out any potential long-term effects, even if it's a financial stretch. Better safe than sorry when it comes to your eyes. A urologist can also help guide you on how to safely continue ED medication, especially given your other health considerations like Peyronie's and blepharitis. Stay proactive, and I hope everything works out for you!
