Have continued to take these for many years after 2 HA's and consultant when pressed saying that the jurys out about stopping the tabs as some cardiologists say keep taking the tabs and others say stop. Anyway no real problem apart from bruising which many of you will have had but also bloodshot eyes. Sometimes only slight pressure will cause bruising and bloodshot eyes. Of course I am not really aware of it until someone comments as no pain or loss of vision. Cant face going anywhere at present to have it checked out as its quite a common occurrence.
Wondered if anyone had similar and what drops if any they took to improve situation.
Many thanks

Bleeding in the eyes can be serious, so I assume that you have discussed this with your GP or cardiologist as a possible side effect from Clopidogrel. If not you should. And if any drops are needed, your GP should be in the loop about their use in my view. That's what GPs are for, in spite of an apparent reduction of their services over the last 2 years or so.
Have you seen an eye specialist to rule out glaucoma? Specsavers and probably other opticians can test eye pressures. I think it's important to check that out. There are eye drops which should help if it is glaucoma. Best of luck .
