Could Blurred Vision And Photo Phobia Be Due To Anemia Medication?
Hi.. my mom, aged 46, was found anemic recently. To supplement for her fatigue, nausea etc, she was admitted to hospital and is now taking Wysolone medication. She recently is experiencing vision problems, like blurred vision, photophobia etc. Could this be related to the medication or her anemic condition?
