What kind of eye damage can Elmiron cause?

Elmiron is a widely-prescribed drug used to treat interstitial cystitis (IC), a painful bladder condition. Patients are usually prescribed Elmiron indefinitely, as it’s a treatment, not a cure, for IC. However, long-term Elmiron use has been linked to the following types of eye damage:

• Blurred vision
• Degenerative maculopathy
• Halo vision
• Macular retinopathy
• Macular/pattern dystrophy
• Maculopathy
• Metamorphopsia
• Pigmentary maculopathy
• Reduced night vision
• Retinal pigment epithelium atrophy
• Retinopathy
• Scotoma
• Unilateral or bilateral blindness
• Vision impairment
• Vision loss

If you’ve suffered any of the above vision symptoms while taking Elmiron for IC, you could be eligible to join an Elmiron lawsuit and receive financial compensation.
