Hey, y'all, this is the tea with Dr T
Hey, men, did you know that Ed could affect a different set of balls... your eyeballs?
I'm gonna get at least one complaint about that joke.
Anyway, if you're taking that little blue pill, you probably need to tell your eye doctor, because you can have some major effects to your eyes.
It could cause blurry vision. Sensitivity to light, color vision changes, and a lot of people will report blue-green, like tones to their vision.
It can go hand in hand with some major medical disorders like diabetes, high blood pressure and a big one is heart disease.
In the eye, if you have these scary bouts of loss of vision that can be super serious because of a decrease of blood flow to your eye.
The moral of the story is, make sure that your doctors know your full medical history, including all the medications you're on, all the diagnoses that you have, so that we could take the best care of you.
This is the tea with Dr T and I'll see you next time you
