Is there any side effects to this medication that may cause iih ?

I have had iih for a couple of years and the neurologist can't get to the bottom of it.

read the one from endocrine abstracts, I dont have IIH but have been telling my optician for over a year that the prescription for my right lense was wrong and they insisted it wasnt (started on levo 18 months ago) vision was blurred but writing on eg tv screen was fractured into two overlapping lines. Been on NDT for nearly a month and just realised right eye is now slightly clearer than left! had no idea levo could affect vision beyond dry eye. Another nail in coffin for levo and ammo for next appt, thanks SS
