Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I can infer that her TB disease must have spread to eyes and it involves the retina and choroid both of which are very necessary for vision. I would advise you to finish the course of AKT and Wysolone and then see how the vision is because as of now I cannot advise as this is the standard protocol. also can you mention what is the extent of eye involvement please.
Hope it helps.
