Probably best to see an ophthalmologist. I had trouble with my eyes with Ibrance and also with Xeloda. The ophthalmologist diagnosed my problem as blepharitis and prescribed an ointment. I think I had a bacterial infection.

Yes. My miracle. I find my eyes and many other things are strange on ibrance too.

I'm experiencing blurred vision, too, along with having a kind of goopy feeling in my eyes. (Didn't have that with Ibrance when I was on that drug. Only with Xeloda.) I recently had to renew my driver's license and of course, they have you take a brief eye exam. I was really concerned that the blurred vision side effect would be a problem. Thankfully, I was able to see everything well enough. A couple of days ago, I started using my Alaway eye drops again. Hopefully that will help.
