[QUOTE=EYESTWO22]klawk316 :
I'm pleased that the information I shared re blurred vision and side effects with Lamictal was of help for you. Some of the research on side effects and Abilify seem to show that blurred vision is a rare side effect. In one report,there were 8 listed Command side effects,and 14 Infrequent side effects with Blurred Vision not listed. Of the Rare side effects listed, Blurred Vision was 12th from a list of 14. That being said, your pdoc may want to consider reducing your Lamictal and increacing your Abilify for a possible reduction of blurred vision.
Keep in mind,however,that when you increase any med. (Abilify), your chances of other undesirbale side effects increases. So, it really comes down to a consideration of how much blurred vision you can tolerate. It is the old "Trade Off" problem.
Maybe we could say, is the "Seeing effects" more or less than a problem than "other effects".
Somewhere, it has been said " produce a medication without side effects and the world will beat a path to your door".

In a earlier post,you stated that your just starting your 40's. It is known that normal focusing changes (presbyopia) will begin to occur at this time of age. An examination with your Optometrist my be needed to varify this normal change, and reading glasses could be all that's needed for your focuing changes.
Again,as I stated in my Quote above, " all meds have some amount of side effects, it just a "normal" problem to deal with." Maybe the vision/focuing problem can somewhat be helped by "Just seeing PAST it"
