Contact your doctor immediately if you notice any decrease in vision or an increase in "floaters" in your visual field. Rarely, echothiophate iodide ophthalmic may cause retinal detachment. Retinal detachment can lead to blind spots, floaters in your visual field, and even blindness. Your doctor will want to check your retina before you use this medicine to determine if you have an increased risk of retinal detachment. If you experience any of the following serious side effects, stop using echothiophate iodide ophthalmic and seek emergency medical attention:
an allergic reaction (shortness of breath; swelling of the lips, face, or tongue; or hives); ;
abdominal cramps or diarrhea; ;
watering mouth; ;
excessive sweating; ;
urinary incontinence; ;
muscle weakness; ;
difficulty breathing; or ;
an irregular heart beat. .
Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to use echothiophate iodide ophthalmic and talk to your doctor if you experience
burning, stinging, red, or tearing eyes; ;
eyelid muscle twitches; ;
headache or brow ache; or ;
decreased vision in poor light. .
Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
