[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2070985, member: 101136"] Hi, Yep, I read the the A1c fast drop issue causing eye problems after I was being congratulated for the managment & had already started the anti VEGF. :banghead: At the time, even with corrective vision. (Reading glasses.) I was using accessibility on my devices with the close up stuff? & even using my mobile phone as a magnifying glass for fine printed documents at work. Yep they started me on a course of Lucentis, then Eyelea. Well? I've always worn prescription lenses since I was a kid, when I hit 40 it was reading glasses time for the close work. Though I can (as I always have.) function perfectly well without them for gigs. Fed up with switching lenses, I've discovered recently the joys of "varyfocal." So much so I got a some safety work glasses made up too? I looked at it this way. No point in investing in a high definition TV if your vision isn't there to appreciate it? Same with the glasses. It's never worth doing an eye test if hypo for instance. As with Macula edema, I made sure I had the thumbs up from the consultants before choosing the frames. ;) My vision now has certainly improved.. I don't need any functions on devices for the visually impaired or zoom in on any fonts.. Edit; just found this for you. (I remembered reading it over a week ago.) you may find this encouraging..?
