Was there a few weeks ago and he told me no change come back in 6 months. Told me i had read better on the charts also. My sugars were a bit off fora few weeks due to me being lazy and being unwell and holiday. Now im bringing them back down to get good control again x

It may be the sudden improvement in glucose levels affecting your eye. I'd pop along to the optician or even your GP if you are concerned that it's not a temporary thing.

I am newly diagnosed T2, and was having blurred vision. I went to my opticians and he said that the BS changed the shape of the eye ball, and so the focal length, shore enough as I have go on top of my BS my sight is righting itself. but I am going back tomorrow for a follow up. ;)

Thank you. You know it is so hard to "look" at myself, it is hard to measure things, for example, the option asked me how fare down the chart I could read. I said I could read the lien ....... (cant remember the letters) then he said that I could see better without classes than he could with his glasses. that was for distance. But he also said my "reading" vision was not that bad!! just goes to show how I panic.

I brought the wrong shampoo the other day, I did not notice it was for dry hair, and mine is always wet when i use it :think:

Just been to my first retina check since I have been under the Spanish health care system. Told me i had to see my doctor for results within a month. Is this the same in the UK ?
