Thanks, I think its a well known fact these drugs can effect the eye sight, I had watery eyes all through chemo and herceptin for up to a year and my optician said there was no point changing glasses until I was finished.

It certainly affected my vision too as it did many of my friends too, thanks for the mention of the article and will check it out now too.
