Blurry vision is a known side effect of Elahere (mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx), so you're definitely not alone in dealing with this frustration! It's really important to let your oncologist know how much it's affecting your daily life, especially if it feels like it's getting worse after each cycle. In the meantime, here are some practical tips for using your phone more comfortably:

- Increase text size on your phone through accessibility settings
- Zoom in on web pages (on iPhone, pinch to zoom or go to Settings > Display & Text Size)
- Enable display zoom to make everything on screen appear larger
- Reduce screen brightness or enable "Night Mode" to reduce eye strain
- Use voice commands like Siri or Google Assistant so you don't have to look at the screen as much
- Take frequent breaks from screen time to rest your eyes Most importantly, don't just push through this — tell your care team exactly how it's impacting you. They may be able to refer you to an eye specialist or adjust how your treatment is managed to help protect your vision going forward.
