Taxol And Vision Changes

A MyBCTeam Member asked a question 💭
Waynesboro, VA

i had 4 AC treatments and just had my 7th Taxol treatment today. I am getting very sensitive to sunlight- but it gets better a few day after chemo- I always wear sunglasses outside. I am also occasionally getting double vision and blurry vision. It is very short lived but I find it very worriesom. Did any of you get vision changes halfway through Taxol?

Yes, my vision gets very blurry since the Taxol. Last treatment was July 18th, and it still happens some days. See Optho in October. Hope it resolves by then. Need new glasses - want them to last
Good luck to you. You’ll find many of us have shared experiences. Hope your vision gets better soon.

Yup! Told onc I needed to have my eyes checked but she suggested I wait 6 months until effects are gone. It has gotten better. So many little things that not everyone experiences.
