I have been taking lexapro for several years - I was on Paroldel for 8 years and this caused interruption of seratonin.  I am losing the vision in my right eye and yet nothing can be found by my opthomoligist.  Could Lexapro be the cause.  I also have gained approximately 50 lbs but have a decreased appetite.  Any suggestions???

I happened to see this post I dont know how but I had to stop and do a double take. I have been on Lexapro only 1 year and my vision has gotten bad enough I walk into things, cant see my face to put makeup on let alone anything else. I never once thought it could be Lexapro until I saw THIS post, though I had wondered about it! Store glasses dont work at all anymore.
