Pregnancy causes changes to women on many levels, physically and emotionally. One health concern that may go unmentioned during a pregnancy is the visual changes that can occur.Females experience increases in hormone levels that can cause changes in blood, cardiovascular function, and immunology. In terms of ocular changes, women may experience difficulty in focusing on objects. Commonly, small fluctuations in eyeglass prescriptions occur. There have been a few reported cases of pregnant women who experience minor losses in their peripheral vision for a short period of time.To see more details visit, www.optom.on.ca
