How much does it cost to hire a lawyer for my case?

Nothing up front. Your case is handled on a contingency-fee basis — there are no attorney's fees unless your case results in a recovery.

Is there a deadline to file?

Yes. Every state's statute of limitations strictly limits the time you have to file. In many states the clock starts on the date of injury or diagnosis. Do not wait — once the deadline passes, your claim is permanently barred.

Will my case be a class action?

No. GLP-1 cases are consolidated as Multidistrict Litigation (MDL 3094) in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Each plaintiff keeps an individual claim and any settlement is based on individual injuries.

Ozempic Vision Loss & NAION Lawsuit

A 2024 Harvard/Mass Eye and Ear study found semaglutide users had a substantially elevated risk of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) — a sudden, often permanent vision loss. Lawsuits are now being filed.

What is NAION?

NAION is a sudden interruption of blood flow to the optic nerve. The classic presentation is painless, sudden loss of vision in one eye, often noticed on waking. There is no effective treatment, and most patients do not recover their vision.

The semaglutide link

Researchers at Harvard's Mass Eye and Ear published findings in JAMA Ophthalmology in mid-2024 showing dramatically elevated NAION risk in semaglutide users. The FDA is investigating; lawsuits allege the warning should be on the label now.

Do you qualify?

You may qualify if you experienced sudden, painless vision loss diagnosed as NAION while taking or shortly after taking Ozempic, Wegovy, or Rybelsus, and had no prior history of NAION in the affected eye.
