Are you getting enough Protein and Water in. both dehydration and low protein levels can cause vision issues. Good Luck.

Are you taking or have you been given anti nausea meds in the hospital?

This is a common side affect..

Some people are given a patch, also to wear.

I had the exact same problem. They told me it was a side affect of the pain medication and anesthesia. It went away on day 4.

Yes they gave me tons of nause stuff plus the patch. No I have not enough Protein I'm on a clear liquid diet

Are you still taking them or wearing the patch?

The patch is notorious for vision problems (temporary)

If you are still on the meds or patch I would put a call into your doc. And let them know because it could become a problem.

I had the same problem. I was worried because years ago I had Lasix surgery and thought that the pressure from the anesthesia and everything messed me up! It gradually got better.

Hi Ashlee - I had this same patch for sea sickness and after wearing it for two days I couldn't even read a menu. I will have to wear it again just before surgery. If you check the label I bet there's a side effect warning on it. I know where you're coming from, I was a little scared before I realized what was causing it...after not wearing it for about 24 hours everything was back to normal. Good Luck!!!

Hi Ashlee-

My eyes were blurry & felt gritty for a little over 2wks....Dr. said it was from anesthesia & pain meds!

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
