Eyes worsened in pregnancy??
I work in an office 9-5 so staring at a computer screen I know isn’t the best. The last few weeks/ month I feel my eye sight has proper got bad. The computer itself is fine. But any kind of distance ( even peoples faces ) is now blurry. The subtitles on the tv blurry.
I had a midwife appointment yesterday and without me mentioning she asked about my eye sight and she said it is a symptom in pregnancy, same with a colleague when I mentioned to her.
I’m currently 30 weeks. Just curious as to whether or not this affected anyone else? This is my second pregnancy and I didn’t have this with my first

Mine was fine but I had an eye test mid pregnancy and they did mention it was a possibility
I had my two yearly eye test during my pregnancy and my eye sight had got worse. The optician asked if I had gestational diabetes as this can also have an effect
my eyes were so bad during my first pregnancy that the last few weeks before giving birth i had to stop driving cause i could barely see in front of me 😩 my eyes got better after but never fully recovered to how they were pre pregnancy
I think mine got worse with my last pregnancy but I haven’t been to the eye doctor since so I don’t know for sure. I got a new pair of glasses very early on while pregnant and saw just a couple days later that you shouldn’t until after because your vision can change
My eyesight worsened in pregnancy and I now need glasses for driving. I had perfect vision before
Ahhh this is what I’m scared of! That it’ll stay 🥲🥲
Well I already had glasses for my vision prior to pregnancy and did have to go get a new prescription during pregnancy
