Blurred Vision May Be A Sign Of Diabetes

GoodTherapy

A study done in August of 2014, found that seventy-three percent of diabetic patients reported having blurred vision. As the blood sugar levels increase, the blood thickens and draws more fluid from the surrounding tissues, including the lenses of the eye. As the liquid drains from the lenses, it causes the lenses to swell and the eyes to lack focus.

Double-vision and blurriness may also be due to hypoglycemia, which is low blood sugar. Low blood sugar can make it difficult for the brain to interpret what the eyes are viewing. However, vision tends to return to normal when blood sugar levels even out.

Knowing that blurred vision may be caused by diabetes, keep reading to find out what natural cause may affect vision.
