Hi, Gigi! Sorry about the problem that you're having.

And yes, Citalopram has been known to cause some vision issues as side effects, however, they usually go away when it is discontinued, so you may not need to change your glasses.

Have you consulted your doctor, yet?

The solution may be as simple as just trying a different medication.
