Hi everyone,
I don't know if anyone has posted about this before, I did a quick search but couldn't see anything.
I went to the optitions the other day to get my eyes tested for new glasses, and as usual I showed the nice man my special blue steroid card and my remicade alert card. He was a bit bemused but nevermind.
Anyway, the optition told me that steroid use can cause cataracts, which I'd never heard of before. He said my eyes were fine, but that if you use steroids for a long time they can develop.
Not trying to scare anyone, I was just surprised, and wondered if anyone else had heard this.
