Dr. Jay Bradley answered

Specializes in Cornea, Cataract, & Refractive (LASIK & PRK) Surgery

Lamictal vision: Some patients experience visual changes when started on lamictal. If these changes persist, the patient should see an eye doctor and may have to consider discontinuation of the medication. Discontinuation of the medication is not usually necessary as the visual complaints typically resove within a few weeks.
