"I used Vigamox for cataract surgery. It has serious side effects that even doctors are unaware of. I got ringing in my ears and tingling in my hands, feet, and legs. I also got leg pain. The tingling is a symptom that irreversible peripheral neuropathy may start to occur. Six weeks later, I still have the ringing in my ears and tingling. If you get any tingling, stop this drug immediately."

"After cataract surgery, took Vigamox and two other eyedrops. I have had difficulty urinating and some burning in the urethra. I did some research and found that this was a possible, but not common side effect. It's been two weeks, so I will stop this medication, it's almost gone anyway, and see what happens."

"I was welding with an electric welder and got a foreign body in the eye. Vigamox was prescribed by the doctor after removing the foreign body and doing eye cleaning. The treatment is a drop every 4 hours, and the side effects I'm experiencing are a lot of headache pressure, heaviness in the eye, and pain. I'm just on the first day of treatment, and I need to keep using the treatment as recommended by the doctor for 7 days."
