SEX-STARVED John Pettigrew took too many Viagras — and now lives his life in a constant "blue movie".
Plumber John, 58, sees everything in shades of blue after the sex pills damaged his vision.
The dad of two said: "I admit I ignored the advice on the packet — I was having too much fun — but I’d give up all the sex in the world to be able to see a red letterbox again."
Divorced John turned to Viagra when he had trouble rising to the occasion after a year without sex. He topped up his GP’s prescription with pills bought over the internet.
He said: "I didn’t have any side-effects, so I didn’t see any harm in increasing the dose. But I have been seeing the world in blue for more than a fortnight now and it’s doing my head in."
John, from Brighton, East Sussex, is now having tests to see if the damage is permanent. He added: "At least I’m a Chelsea fan."
Makers Pfizer say some men may experience a blue tint to their sight after taking Viagra, and warns users not to exceed the recommended dose.
