[QUOTE="Circuspony, post: 1717038, member: 432241"] Its taken quite a few months for my eyesight to really settle down. I'm a contact lense wearer and ended up ordering boxes on line of various different prescriptions as my eyes changed. My glasses gathered dust for a couple of months because the prescription was too strong, but I can wear them again now. Overall my prescription hasn't changed much, but my astigmatism seems to have got a lot worse. When I saw the optician a fortnight ago she advised against buying new glasses even 6 months post diagnosis to see whether the astigmatism settles down. I was running a sugar level of around 10 when I saw her and made myself a note to try and get at a more stable level for a few days before my next appointment in case that was causing the issue.
