Blurry eyesight

[trophywench]

Even little satsumas have a surprising amount of sugar in them - regularly up to 15g of carbohydrate - always between 10 and 15 depending on weight. To give you a comparison that's virtually the same as eating a large slice of medium sliced white bread!

Hi Lynne.. Im new on here too got the rubbish news im type 2 only last week my eyes have also been quite blurry especially when I focus on the same thing for a while i.e laptop.. doctor told me this is because of the high glucose readings.. should calm down once my levels go down.. so if you wear glasses as I do I wouldnt worry about seeing your optician just yet as Im sure they will calm down soon x

Hi there Lynne and welcome.🙂 Yep, I had blurry vision before and after diagnosis too. It got so bad sometimes I couldn't see well enough to drive. It cleared up gradually, with intermittent bouts for approx my first 6 months on insulin. I still get it now if my glucose is very high, but it isn't as debilitating and passes more quickly.

If you're worried, then see an optician but don't get new glasses just yet, as others have advised. 🙂

Hi there, thanks all the advice given. I have been to the optician and got another eye test, I asked the optician if I could get glasses, he wasn't going to give me them but I told him I couldn't go on with my blurry eyesight. Although its just a quick fix just now, at least I can see properly. 😎
