Blurry vision

Anyone experiencing blurry vision at the moment? I have glasses but it is not helping. Going to see opticians on Saturday to double check everything is ok but wanted to ask if this is due to my hrt? Thanks.

Hello 🙂 Dry eyes and other mucous membranes can be a symptom of peri/menopause, so if other symptoms are niggling too then a review would be appropriate.

Please do discuss using suitable eye drops with your optometrist - they can be a big help if dry eyes are the problem 😊🩷

Hi Clare-I wonder if you might be in varifocal territory. I really struggled to focus as lots of things were blurred despite glasses and reading glasses. Got them and luckily I adapted to them pretty quickly and they helped. ❤️👓

interesting as opticians did suggest that ages ago but have always managed with glasses and reading glasses separately.

Yes need new glasses as I am now very longsighted. Had to have blood tests to rule out diabetes but all good there. Just age!!!
