[QUOTE="BaliRob, post: 2249183, member: 36236"] Of course we were looking and, I might add, with bated breath hahaha. No I/We are happy that there was an outcome so that you know it is not just you but there is a cause and an effect going on. For future reference high blood sugars will ALWAYS blurr one's vision. But also watch out for the creeping Cataract - it seems to be the same as high blood sugar but, usually, does not occur in both eyes at once. There are eye drops that can control the Cataract (NB I did not say remove it). I had a 20% Cataract in one eye and the eyedrops have kept it in check satisfactorily. DON'T LET EYE SPECIALISTS TELL YOU THAT THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO UNTIL THE CATARACT HAS GROWN TO FULLY COVER THE LENS - In the early days and in my case one can continually see through the Cataract and vision CAN be corrected during that time. It should be noted that it can take up to 10 years for a Cataract to be suitable for the laser - I chose not to wait until blind in one eye but to use the eyedrops. Cataracts can affect all ages but especially in those countries with poor diets. I hope this reply is useful to the OP and others interested in this condition. All of this info can be factually proven. [/QUOTE]
