Vision change after surgery



Recommended Posts

100 pounds down and 9 months after surgery. I needed a well over do eye exam. Felt might be time for reading glasses and needed Rx for contacts. To my surprise I was perfect reading vision when tested. My current Rx is -2.75 and -2.50 to see distance. After an exam it is -2.00 and -2.25. She said the reading issues I was having was my current Rx was too string and putting long term stress on eyes. I have a trial pair of contacts and no issues in vision.

No where have I been told WLS might change vision. Highly suggest vision checks thru this process. I did not mention WLS surgery but will when I order contacts and find out if there is a connection.

Anyone else experience this?

That's awesome! When I became a vegetarian several years ago, my eye sight got better too! Let us know what your eye doc says!
