Title: Red Eyes
Post by: Zohar on April 09, 2011, 11:03:44 am

I've been on Darunavir, Norvir and Truvada for around 8 months now and the whites of my eyes are constantly red. You know how your eyes look after a heavy night out? Well, mine look like that all the time.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this likely to be a side effect of the medication or a sign that something else could be amiss?

Is it something that one should just put up with?

On the same drugs and no, but it's newish, darunavir, so speak to your doc about it.

I have it most of the time.

It looks like I've been up all night on the booze, but sadly that's not the case.

I've been to the eye specialist and they don't know what's wrong.  I kind of put it down to stress.

Am not on same medication.
