Lotte Is Antifa-scist 🚩Does anyone with #LongCovid #mecfs #pots #mcas have problems with their vision? I have blurry vision from about 2-5 meters distance, my left eye seems to be more affected than my right eye. It is not always the same: sometimes it's worse. Mainly after food or physical exertion it seems. I wonder if it has to do with low blood pressure or blood clots? (I am seeing an eye doctor, he gave me eyedrops for dry eyes but it didn't get better)

Victoria Walberg@cookingroffa I developed cataracts, but I have been having cortisol spikes. No idea if post-covid related, or something else though. If it is cataracts, insist on cortisol hair testing.
Vereesh@cookingroffa I have lots of vision issues, some are constant, others come and go. It's so unpredictable that I gave up trying to wear glasses years ago, at least when I'm at home. Processing what I see on top of processing the correction gets too tiring. Instead I use large fonts, and screens I can move towards me. And dark, color lights, and magnifying tools, and, and, and.

Blurry vision can be due to dysautonomia. Download a COMPASS-31.

It is a psychometrically validated short form that measures dysautonomia. It is simple enough to score it yourself, and let a doctor know.
Worsening after food or exercise makes me think POTS, or another orthostatic intolerance. Maybe test your vision supine and standing.
@robloblaw thanks for the link! Very useful. And yes I was thinking it is POTS related too
