Avatar n tn re experiencing could still possibly be related to the course of steroids (although still not very likely) - in that use of prednisone can raise blood sugar and elevated blood sugar can cause blurred vision, although usually in both eyes, not just one.

Avatar f tn My only problem right now is vision loss. I have had 3 days IV solumedrol and am now on oral prednisone. Has anyone else had the vision problem and how long did it take for improvement or did it improve at all? I'm new to all this.
Avatar n tn I Have alot of the symptoms of MS, tingling, numbness, headaches, blurred vision, weakness, in hands and feet, bad balance, pain and major fatigue. I had an MRI done and it came back as inconcluive, what does this mean?
1448748 tn?1312956208 So, I have been having blurred vision intermittently for about the past 3 weeks and it will last anywhere from 30 min to a couple hours in just my left eye. Then for the past 2 weeks i experienced 3 separate episodes where my left eye got dark just like I put a really dark sunglass on it and the other eye was fine for about 15 min or so and slowly faded back to normal. I went to the ophthalmologist who dilated my eyes and said my nerves look fine and everything else looks good.
Avatar f tn ve been taking the medication, I have experienced upper respiratory tract infections, sinus infections, rash (bumps on chest and shoulders), blurred vision and extreme hoarseness. My voice was limited to a slight wisper smh. I actually went for an eye exam in July 2016 because I couldn't really see signs when driving during the day or night. I also couldn't see while reading. Everything was blurry/fuzzy. I ended up getting glasses (bifocals).
Avatar m tn Back in February I was dianosed with VOGT "koyanagi harda syndrome" in my eyes, this caused me blurred vision in my right eye where I couldn't see nothing but a huge blur spot, I was put on 60mg of prednisone, and I noticed my face looking fuller, my girlfriend recently told me my face looked swollen, that's how I knew it really starting to be noticeable. I hate it but it's something I have to go thru in order to keep my vision.
Avatar m tn So I've been on 40mgs of pred for a week now. Today my fever went up close to 101, and has been hovering above 100 all day. It spiked up to 100 a couple of times yesterday, and I woke up more tired than I have been all week. I've been shaking a lot today, and my vision is more blurred than yesterday. There are also these little aches and pressures coming and going in different parts of my forehead and top of the head and behind the eyes.
Avatar m tn 9 weeks ago after the birth of my second daughter, I started having some discomfort from dryness in my eyes, and then one day after a panic attack (my wife had complications post delivery and we had to rush her to ER), my vision went blurred and it has not returned to normal since then. I will say it has improved from where it was that first week, but seems to be stuck at about 90% of normal.
1548028 tn?1324612446 I know an MRI may not show anything new but geez I hope they can find out what is causing all of this. Today is day 15 of nausea, PAIN, stiffness, slurred speech, confusion, blurred vision, falling and etc... Jordan is wore out from this episode. Doing MRI of brain, neck and spine today. Say if they find anything they will put him on IV therapy. I am assuming prednisone. Praying today we will get something firm and help him. Day 353 of "limboland".
Avatar f tn It can cause hoarseness in the voice, coughing and choking on food, slurring of speech, extreme muscle weakness, blurred or double vision, droopy eyelids, and the most severe thing is called: A MG crisis. It's when your chest muscles are so weakened that you can't breathe. Then, it's an emergency. Oh well, just trying to help answer your last question. Remember though, I'm not a doctor. Just what I say I am: grannymusiclover.
Avatar m tn It started with floating spots then progressed to blurring periodically. After that I started the prednisone trials and it clears up on the higher doses but comes back on the lower doses. I noticed last week I was having a day when my vision was blurred most of the day along with some other symptoms and contacted my GP who wasn't in. They referred me to the neuro who insisted I was improving because of steroid euphoria without asking me any questions about what exactly was feeling better.
3244521 tn?1346861134 Blurred Vision; the need to urinate often, constant dry mouth. overall uneasy feeling. Went to the Dr., he decided to get a AC1 test. which returned 422. I asked if it could be the high dosage of Prednisone he said no, that I was T2 diabetic. He prescribed Metformin 500mg with each meal and 16 cc's of Insulin. Still on the Prednisone Taper. for the rest of that week my BS numbers were all over the place even with the new Medications. Mostly ranging between 89-220.
1925822 tn?1333705617 I know the vision part was already stated,but who of u has constant blurred vision?it depresses me the most.is this permanent damage?
Avatar f tn My vision has progressively become worse over the past four years or so. As of late, it has become much worse, with blurred vision. I find it very difficult to read at times. I was diagnosed with MS in February. Until then I just thought my eyes were getting bad, but now I wonder if it has to do with the MS. With MS and vision problems, does it get bad and then better like a relaps? Should I speak to my Neuro about it, or just go to the eye dr? Thanks for your help!
Avatar f tn Has anyone experienced blurred vision and migranes?, I'm 34 weeks + 4 days pregnant and today I experienced blurred vision for 20mins followed by an hour migrane,I felt sick and had lower back pain but it eventually went! Has anyone else experienced this!?

Avatar f tn I had a C/S 2years ago. I developed blurred vision immediately after I woke up from the anesthesia effect. The blurred vision has persisted since then. I had no previous eye problems. I visited an opthamologist who tested my visual field and found okay. My fasting Blood sugar level is also normal. I do not have headaches but I often feel tired and my head feels abnormal. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
498375 tn?1212265416 About 3 months into tx my good right eye got a lot of floaters (annoying) and my vision also got a little blurry. It is now 8 weeks post tx and the blurry vision is either gone or i am used to it. I still have the floaters though. One thing I have noticed lately is my eyes used to get very dry. It seemed that bright lights and watching TV really bothered them. It caused a very dry or burning sensation. That doesn't happen anymore.
3556225 tn?1356371040 I'm in bed and all of the sudden I very light headed and blurred vision I'm so worried

Avatar f tn I have had very blurred vision in one eye over about 24 hours. My vision is clear close-up but over a distance of over a foot or two it gets very blurry. I wear corrective lenses and they aren't improving my vision at all. I don't notice any pain or redness. I don't have problems with my other eye, but I'm blind in that eye so I wouldn't notice any problems. Should I wait and see if this improves or see a physician immediately?
