That is very rare and it seems to happen primarily in people that are diabetic. The data is also not conclusive that GLP-1s are causing the blindness. Obesity is a known risk factor for cancer, heart disease, kidney failure, stroke, blindness and it increases the risk of all cause mortality. Decent data on GLP-1s indicates that they can reduce all-cause mortality by 10-15% in people that are obese or have diabetes.
If you can afford to do so and she is interested, pay for her ozempic.
Agree. If you can't help pay, even just mentioning to your daughter that prices have gone down might be helpful. Everyone's head of GLP-1's, sure, but not everyone is aware of current prices.

Is she seeing a doctor for yearly well-checks? These are normal things for mothers to be concerned about. Is she young and new to working full time? Ask if there’s anything you can do to help her with this transition to being 100% self supporting. A meal delivery service? A gym membership to try fun classes and meet new people? Tell her you love her and you’re trying to figure out how to mother an adult.
This is absolutely not useful because she will just hear that you don't accept her because of her weight. It absolutely does not help an overweight person to complain to them about their weight and instead breeds resentment of the person doing the criticizing.

Omg shut up “ marriage potential “
We are about to be owned my a dictator and women are going to
Owe all rights you want her married that’s your focus ?
Your daughter is now a cow she wasn’t brought into this world to breed
She’s smart and lovely and a good human you are sick
Leave her alone those drugs have tons of side effects if her doctor recommends them fine but her mother is a dam idiot

As someone who struggled with weight and was criticized by my mother I would advice you to keep your thoughts to yourself of you want her to continue visiting. My mom has been dead for eight years and I still struggle with the effect that the weight criticism had on my self esteem. It is not useful and will make her resent you. Only criticize her body if you wish to not see her.
Why do you assume OP is a mother
