Ed Medications - What You Should Know
“Many patients come to me to learn more about vision problems associated with Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra, and tell the truth; yes, these drugs can cause serious vision problems,” says Dr. Stuart Lewis, an ophthalmologist in Denver, Colorado. If you use Levitra, Cialis, or Viagra, you may have heard about the possible effects they can have on your vision. Many people are unsure whether the vision problems these drugs cause is rumor or truth.
Viagra must be one of the best known drugs in the modern world and there are now many ‘copycat’ drugs on the market. Viagra was originally developed to treat a totally different ailment and its effect on the sexual performance of certain men was an accident, a fortunate one for both the men and, given the drug’s popularity, the pharmaceutical company that makes it. The effect is short term, lasting only a few hours, and the long term effects are not known. Neither Viagra or the other drugs in the same market have any effect on women women suffering loss of libido. Furthermore, anyone with a heart, liver, kidney and some other conditions, would be at severe risk if they took any of these drugs.
“The bottom line is, and what I tell all my patients, is that these medication should never be taken unless they are needed because there are serious health and visual risks associated with them,” says Dr. Lewis.
