Hi All,
I have been on tamoxifen for just over 3 weeks and seem to be having problems with my eyes. They are really dry and watering constantly. Has anybody else suffered in this way.

Hi there! I’ve been 4 months on Letrozole not too dissimilar to Tam…my eyesight has deteriorated in the last 12 months and optician suspects diabetes caused, she thinks, by Letrozole and having Googled it, there isa connection!! I’ve had full blood count and diabetes check recently and will chase oncology this week to see what they think. I’ve also got appointment with eye dept at my hospital. Am hugely reluctant to keep taking long term tablets if this is the case!! His have you resolved the issue?? X
