Hypo & sight

[xsta]

Does anybody else see everybody and everything turning to white and/or kind of glowing / oversaturated when you’re in a hypo? This has happened to me every time since my eyes were lasered the 3rd or 4th time .

Yes, I've not had laser surgery but I have had bad sight problems this year when my blood sugars are low my vision is so wacky, every light I see lingers and feels engraved into my vision it's α nightmare! nurse said this is α fairly normal symptom of diabetic hypoglycaemia though

Hi,

I've not had laser surgery, but yes my eyes can become light sensitive. A device screen displaying a wab page can be a total "white out."

I get visual disturbances which are very similar to the start of a migraine.

Wow sounds scary! This doesn't happen to me but a couple of times I have noticed slight differences in my vision, such as seeings stars when I felt dizzy (3.1), feeling disconnected from the world (variety of numbers), and once hallucinating that a tablecloth was moving (that was only a 4.1, I have no idea why my eyes went crazy haha).

Hi,

Yep. Flickering lights (like flashing LEDs.) in the lower field of vision. Or a distorted shimmering haze in lower field too...? So I could understand a tablecloth "hallucination" triggered by this perception..
I call it my "heads up display."
