Hi all,
I was diagnosed with diabetes type 1 last week after going to the doctors/hospital to check my symptoms, one of which was seriously blurred vision.
Ive worn glasses for about 10 years now and I've found especially in the last 3/4 that my eyes were pretty bad without (and extremely bad in the last 2 weeks)
however since getting my blood sugar down my eyesight seems to have improved beyond anything i could have imagined like I keep taking my glasses on and off to compare because I can't believe my eyes. It crossed my mind that maybe I was undiagnosed for a longer time but I feel like that can't be the case because I never hypoed.
I'm quite a worrier so I'm starting to think this is too good to be true and that maybe it's just gotten better temporarily before something bad happens but wanted to see if this has happened to anyone else? Did it last? Or Did it get worse after?
