Yes seems much interest now in the articles on eye effects. I look every day for new publications on this and for new conferences abstracts. There must be research going on but could take 9-12 months before articles in press after viagra release.

It has always been my hunch that if viagra is ever withdrawn it will be because of retinal effects. The Pfizer results on FDA site done with small numbers hence not significant but strongly suggestive of potentially damaging effects.
