Very slim: It is a very rare side event. Just if any sudden dimness of vision or change in eye sight, consult asap. It has been reported regardless of dose, frequency of usage. Just be aware as you seem to be... Annual eye exam for middle age and elderly, in diabetics and patients with heart disease is recommended regardless...

Sounds like a: Recycling of the wives tale about masturbation making you "go blind". These meds have vascualr effects. The eyes are enriched by many vessels, some can leak such as the wet form of macular degeneration, but that is the problem not the sildenifil. The cost of these will make your eyes bulge, and few insurers cover the $20/pill cost.
