[QUOTE="Dark Horse, post: 2170158, member: 52527"] Blurred vision can be due to a change in glucose control but it can also be due to macular oedema. If you're not due a diabetic eye screening test in the next couple of months, it would be wise to go to the optometrist for an eye test and explain the situation. They should be able to pick up obvious maculopathy and refer you to hospital, if needed. If your prescription has changed, it would be wise to try improving your blood glucose for a while and then get re-tested before buying new glasses. Your optometrist should also be able to identify other causes of blurriness such as cataract. [/QUOTE]
