Study links Ozempic to higher risk of eye condition that can cause vision loss

Seems like they’re unsure about this being causation or just correlation.
From the article: “Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure are risk factors for NAION. It’s possible that patients with more severe diabetes or high blood pressure were more likely to be prescribed semaglutide, as it’s a highly effective drug, and that may have played into the higher rates of NAION in those cohorts.”
They have to say that because of the study design
Yes, because the study design does not prove causation.
