Are visual disturbances related to ET or hydroxyurea?

PV can cause occasional blurred vision. My eye doctor said we are prone to clots so we need to check behind the eyes and we can have retina issues from the excess red blood cells. Dry skin and tender gums can be from the meds but dry skin can be more from blood cancer diseases I believe. Good luck and I hope this third medication works for you!

ET-CALR patient. My eye doc always checks me for ocular clots. Not real worried about it since I take my meds and CALR carries half the clot risk as JAK. But at 70, things can go sideways fast. I also have blurry vision at times, but I suspect that has more to do with my many allergies. Leaf mold has been extra bad in Michigan because of the very warm autumn.
