‘Skinny jabs’ like Ozempic and Wegovy could trigger terrifying eye condition and leave you BLIND [Video]

WEIGHT loss jabs have been linked to an eye condition that can cause blindness.

Researchers found diabetes patients prescribed semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, were more than four times more likely to be diagnosed with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).

Meanwhile, those who were overweight or obese prescribed the drugs were more than seven times as likely to develop the condition as those on other weight loss medicines.
