Ivabridine - we know a side effect is blurry vision but will it become permanent or is it a "only while you're on it" type thing?
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome - any particular suggestions regarding eye health & EDS?

Ivabridine is known to cause vision effects (halos on lights, blurry vision etc) but typically only in the first few months and it usually goes away if you stop.
EDS is a collagen disease and 80% of the eye is collagen. So it can be affected. The cornea is the place this happens most commonly. Some types (like Type VI Kyphoscoliosis) will affect it more. We watch for Keratonconus in EDS patients.
