What Causes Crossed Eyes And Headache While On Metroprolol?
hello, my husband has High BP and take metroprolol 50 mgs twice a day. Hover, he started to have pressure behind his eyes and has felt like his eyes were literally crossing. But when I look to see if they are, their not. He also has a headache as well.. I know this isn t wise but he has tried my prescription glasses on and that seemed to help him by getting rid of that eye crossing feeling.. please advise :)
