Pregnancy which is regarded as one of the most pivotal phases which play a crucial role in moulding a lady's body for her later life. The care and nourishment that she receives during pregnancy and in the postnatal phase, is what helps her body to recover from the extreme task of parturition. Pregnancy is like most of us know, accompanied by multiple major changes in terms of the body shape and more prominently the uterine changes which are parallel to the graph of various hormones in the body. Some major issues, reported during this crucial part of a woman's like, include swollen feet, mood swings which are majorly due to the varying hormone levels. Well what surprised us was the fact that a woman's eyes face major changes during pregnancy. The eyes are reported to swell during this period due to the rising blood pressure and increase in various body fluids. The change is not prominent enough to be seen from the outside but may cause a blurred vision and may even worsen to an infection. Women who wear contact lenses may face a major issue since cornea of the eye is reported to change it's shape during pregnancy. Women suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure, glaucoma and even women who have ever undergone a fertility treatment are more prone to vision changes during pregnancy. Nearsighted vision tends to increase slightly during pregnancy. Any of the symptoms like Double Vision, extremely Blurry Vision for prolonged times, extreme Sensitivity to Light, loss of vision, seeing spots or Flashing Lights, the patient should immediately consult an optometrist. Some women who do not see such changes during the pregnancy, tend to suffer from them during the breastfeeding phase. Just getting your spectacles corrected may not help and consulting a good optometrist has to be accomplished.
