A woman’s body already goes through some big changes. Eyesight is one, it is affected by changes to metabolism, hormones, fluid retention, and the cardiovascular system. Blurry vision could be caused during pregnancy because fluid retention in the eyes can increase pressure in the eyeball, resulting in a thicker cornea. Some other changes other than blurred vision are dry eyes, puffy eyelids, flashing lights, spots or unusual floaters, or loss of vision. If you do lose your eyesight even just temporarily, it’s important to seek medical attention.
