AAO Viagra Study Correction
SAN FRANCISCO, July 22 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Academy of Ophthalmology wishes to notify the press of a correction to ''Eye Doctors Caution Viagra Users: Newly Approved Drug May Cause Visual Side Effects,'' released by the Academy on May 1, 1998. One paragraph in the May 1 release refers to a clinical study, reported by the FDA, demonstrating electrical measure of retinal function for study participants dropped by 30 to 50 percent and lasted for at least five hours after taking a high dose of Viagra. This particular study, FDA study 148-232, has been amended by the FDA and the Academy removed this information from our news release.

The Academy's amended release can be found on the Academy's website, eyenet.org. For additional information regarding this study, please contact the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at Tel. 301-594-5329 and reference study 148-232.

The mission of the American Academy of Ophthalmology is to achieve accessible, appropriate and affordable eye care for the public by serving the educational and professional needs of the ophthalmologist.
