Just an FYI - I started having some trouble with my eye - blurry vision, red, irritated, etc. I have been on Tarceva for nine months after being dx with BAC lung cancer stage 4.

There have been reports of ocular ulcers and cornea perforations for Tarceva users as well as some Intestinal problems.

See the attached FDA notice. The downside is the recommendation to go off the meds if there are ulcerations.
