Quetiapine (the generic name for Seroquel) has been shown to cause cataracts (the lens of the eye becomes dull, not clear) in animals. There have been case reports of this side effect when Seroquel is used in high doses in humans. An eye exam may be indicated for people who take high doses of Seroquel.

My son took Seroquil as part of a study and ended up with tardive dyskinesia. If you develop involuntary muscles spasms or tremors, contact your doctor immediately. The damage can be permanent (even when you stop taking Seroquel).
