All About Vision explains: “With some drugs, patients are instructed to have an eye exam every year while they are on the medication, and sometimes for several years after stopping it.
“If you think medication is causing eye problems talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you stop taking it.”
Corticosteroids, which are available in oral, systemic and topical forms, may also cause cataracts and glaucoma after years of use, according to All About Vision.
They are widely used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, leukaemia, lymphoma and asthma.
