Can Intake Of Xarelto Cause Glaucoma?

I am 47 year old female. Traveled by car a 25 hour trip and developed a blood clot. Taking xarelto 20 mg once daily now. First three weeks I was taking 15 mg twice daily. My vision was impaired. Went to eye doctor and I was diagnosed with gluacoma. Is xarelto a factor in this diagnosis?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Xarelto is not known to cause or worsen glaucoma so it is not likely to be related to this diagnosis.

Persons may react differently to medication but this particular problem is not known to occur.

I hope this helps
