Hello,

i have been on the birth control pill for about 6 years now and I noticed that ever since I started taking it, my vision has become more and more impaired. I know that the side effects of the pill state if you notice blurry vision then you should seek medical advice immediately. I advised my ob/gyn and she put me on othro evra, which after 6 months wasn't working for me, so she put me back on the pill. I started the pill again and it has been three months, but I feel my vision is becoming worse faster (i had an increase in prescription just six months ago and I need another increase). I am not sure if this is birth control pill related or just my aging. But, my vision was perfect before I started the pill. If it is birth control pill related, does this go away after you stop taking it? Or is it irreversible?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
