Good morning all.

On Sunday I gave in to temptation and had a full Sunday dinner which included mash and roast potatoes, parsnips, carrots and gravy. Then last night I went to the pub and drank 4 pints of a fairly sweet cider and when I got back to my hotel room I ate the 2 complimentary Oreos. Don't ask me why I just went off the rails a bit. I normally eat LCHF.

This morning I have noticed my vision seems to be a slightly blury. Is a short term BG spike capable of temporarily affecting vision?
 
Due to flight delays and other complications I arrived in Palermo at 01:00 starving hungry and thirsty. At the only nearby food place open I had a large pizza and a beer. The next evening I couldn't see well enough to drive in the dark. I was back to normal in a couple of days but I won't do that again.
