Blurred Vision

Ever since i have had this sinus infection I have also been feeling this pressure on the top of my left eye. Well now it is getting progressivly worse and my vision is severly being affected.
I read in my week to week that dull vision could happen now (along with dry eyes) but when do I know its too much? I have really good vision normally and right now i can't read things unless they are about a foot or two away. Last night I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't read my alarm clock which was right next to my head.


ETA- It's not just dull/blurry but double as well (but the double is just in my left eye).

I would go to an eye doctor. Your vision can definitely be affected by pregnancy- but to be sure its only temporary, check it out with your eye doctor.

Deb, I don't know. I know some change in vision is normal, but I think you should have it checked out, it sounds too severe to me. Good luck!

Thanks ladies.
I called my PCP and the appt lady didn't seem so concerned nad had me make an appt. for tomorrow.
Hopefully I am just over-reacting.

My prescription for eyeglasses actually increased when I was prego.

Re: Blurred Vision

I know that your vision can change when you are preggo, but yours sounds a bit more than that, I would definitely see an optometrist or ophthalmologist.

I tried to get in with my eye dr too but apparently she is booked up today.
WTH man, is everyone going to the doc today?
