Hi I am Jane and I had to get off Ethambutal do to eye problems. I couldn't pass the vision view test 3 times. My eye doctor took me off it immediately. After 3 months off the medication I could pass it with no problems. Hope this helps. I continued with Rifampin and Azithromycin.

Hi. I am Greg and have been taking the big 3 since March 2024, first at three times a week then daily since last September. About 2 weeks ago I started having vision problems in my left eye. It's like there is a constant glare in my vision. I went to an eye doctor who has been monitoring my vision but he couldn't find anything wrong but he referred me to another ophthalmologist specializing in toxicity. Was your eye problem like mine?
