Rogaine and eye/vision problems?

[andy_the_man]

Hi,

I've been applying 5% Rogaine once a day and on evenings, for a couple of weeks. A week ago I noticed some strange feelings in my eyes: they sometimes felt tired and sometimes I had some minor problems with vision acuity.

I've tried to learn from this site how common side effect is? Not many people are complaining about eye or vision problems caused by minoxidil. There may be other reasons for my problems, but because I noticed them after starting 5% rogaine, so I'm guessing that they are minoxidil-related.

Thanks for your help

Had the same problem, put only 1 ml on your head, don't exaggerate.Do you apply minoxidil just after the shower when your scalp is wet? maybe it is the problem..too much absorption..
