People taking weight-loss and diabetes injection drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy may have an increased risk of sudden and irreversible vision loss and blindness, a new study has found.

However, doctors say there’s no reason for patients who take the uber popular drugs to panic or discontinue taking their prescriptions.

The study, conducted by Harvard researchers and published Wednesday in JAMA Ophthalmology, analyzed data from 16,827 patients over a six-year period at the Mass Eye and Ear Harvard teaching hospital.

Global’s Katherine Ward has the details.
