Vision problems on sertraline?

[TrippyMcGuire762]

So I've been on 75mg of sertraline for like 2 weeks now and one thing I have started to notice is that my eyes have trouble focusing on things and seem to get a bit blurry. Is this normal? Will it pass. It made it to where I can't drive again as I can't focus on what I'm doing. It also makes it hard to type on either my phone or computer. Also, I feel a bit zombified (for lack of a better term) and have been having weird aches and pains.

I was on sertraline for almost a year and it made feel very zombie like and it messed with my vision. I wasn't able to focus on anything. All around it didn't work for me so I stopped it with my Drs help.

Well, the catch for me is that it is working, for about a week and a half everything seemed better. I got out and started driving again, and was functioning normally. The past couple days though have been horrid.

I'm sorry to hear that. I say give it a little more time. Maybe this is just a bump in the road so to speak. If things still arent getting better for you then I think you should bring this up to your Dr. I hope you feel better. The path to healing can be a rough one. Take care.

You need to speak to your doctor and opthamologist. I believe that Zoloft can effect a condition called glaucoma. If you have Glaucoma, Zoloft might not be a good choice. But don’t stop without speaking to your doctor first.
