Pfizer: Viagra Doesn't Cause Blindness

"NEW YORK - Pfizer Inc. said that a review concluded that Viagra doesn't increase patients' risk of blindness but that it is still working with federal regulators to update the drug's label to reflect rare reports of vision loss."

Ok, so I am drawing a blank on an appropriate sarcastic remark here.

"It is so small you'll wish that you were blind" or some such silliness comes to mind. Sorry, today the witty remarks are suffering from fatigue or some other malady. More to come later.

I had the exact same thought, Cindra.

Of course, it also brought to mind about the kid who got caught doing "that," and was told he would go blind.

The kid stopped for a moment, then asked, "Well can I keep doing it just until I need glasses?"
