Breast Cancer: Vision and Eye Problems



Though not a common side effect, breast cancer treatment may affect your eyes, including your vision.
Breast cancer treatments that may cause eye problems are:

·   red, itchy, or dry eyes
·   watery eyes
·   conjunctivitis (pink eye)
·   blurry or double vision
·   seeing dark spots

If you have vision problems, it can be a sign of a more serious medical condition. Call your doctor right away if you notice that you're having trouble seeing or if your vision changes.
