Thanks for your suggestion. Punctuation has never been my strong point. If you see them in the future please let me know where they are.

The current swine flu strain has not seen significant reports of pinkeye but I’m sure it is occurring occasionally. If pinkeye occurs along with flu like symptoms there is a good chance it is viral and will go away in about a week. Any eye that has discharge that is not clear, sticks together in the morning, and is painful or blurry needs to be seen. Some viral infections that are less common can last for months, even a year. These usually will cause discomfort and a reduction in vision that leads people to seek care. Herpes viral infections can cause blindness if not treated-so not all viral infections are innocuous. There has been a trend the last five years or so to not treat most mild viral infection with antibiotics, in the eye or in the body as in a cold. Practitioners have become concerned with creating mutations and creating antibiotic resistant bugs. Personally, I almost always treat viral eye infection with an antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory drop. I am not convinced using antibiotics in the manner prescribed is significant in antibiotic resistance. I believe the massive routine dosing of farm animals with antibiotics worldwide and the inconsistent and inadequate dosing levels used in under developed countries is the primary factor in bacterial resistance. Treating viral eye infections with antibiotics prevents secondary bacterial infections and the anti-inflammatory drops make your eyes feel much less irritated. Of course the end result is usually the same, it goes away in about a week. -Hope You Are Feeling Better.

Most commonly, they can cause a mild dilation of the pupil and precipitate an attack of angle closure glaucoma. This would occur in people who are already susceptible to this form of glaucoma due to their eye anatomy. Usually they will develop it at some point even if not exposed to Prozac. This would usually cause a rapid onset of a red ,painful eye with nausea and not the type of floaters you describe. Some individuals may have a mild transient rise in their eye pressure for several weeks, then a return to normal. Although it would be very unlikely, a fluctuation from high to normal could help precipitate a vitreous detachment with floaters. Since Prozac has a long half life, it would not give swings in pressure that could possible contribute to such an event.

Prozac may cause cellular changes to the retina or tissue under it but again, this would be unlikely to be the cause of your floaters.

Most likely, you suffered a vitreous detachment unrelated to the medication. Floaters do tend to settle down and become less noticeable with time. As we age, a substance called hyaluronic acid degrades and releases water bound to it, contributing to the liquification of the vitreous gel inside the eye. There is some evidence that free radicals in our dietary intake may hasten this process. Eventually the vitreous detaches from the retina. Age is relative, in nearsighted patients this may occur in their twenties. An inflammation or infection inside the eye may also cause floaters.

Anything is possible, an autoimmune response in the eye to Prozac, structural cellular changes to the fluid or the retina where the fluid connects, changes to circulation of the some of the eye tissues from Prozac. These are just highly unlikely.
There is a very good chance your vision will improve with time.

If you have not done so already I would see an eye doctor to make sure there is not another serious problem or disease occurring. There are treatments for debilitating floaters but they come with their won ricks. I would encourage you to report your problem to the FDA at: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/medwatch/medwatch-online.htm
Sometimes, connections are not made between drug side effects the pharmaceutical due to lack of reports. Unfortunately, there are always very rare cases of reactions specific to one person that in the case of a drug like Prozac, having been administered in millions of doses with no similar reports, will always be an unknown.

Keep in mind that almost all of the population will eventually develop floaters with age, and almost all adapt with time. I recently saw an individual who had a floater lasered (3 times)-but was still happy with the results. This is not standard of care and currently being done by one two eye doctors, this one on Florida. Someday it could become a quick,acceptable cure.

Best Luck
