The article doesn't state but were those with the condition taking it for diabetes or weight loss? Because vision loss can happen with diabetes. So is this newish risk from the drug solely or a combined effect?

Such a good twilight zone twist. Take this drug to be beautiful, sorry about your vision. Are you beautiful now?

I think for many people, losing weight is not just about beauty, it is about their health, too. These drugs are great for public health.

If you are worried about health you make a lifestyle change. If you are chasing a quick return it’s probably not primarily the health you’re thinking about.

I mean, isn't that what these drugs do? Cause someone to make lifestyle changes they otherwise would struggle with?

From what I've read (may be wrong) a lot of people revert back to their old habits once they're off these drugs. Lifestyle changes are the only legitimate way to improve your health without negative long term side effects.
