How long does blurry vision last after starting weight loss injections?
Blurry vision after starting weight loss injections typically lasts a few weeks as blood sugar levels adjust and usually settles once they stabilise. In some cases, particularly for older adults, it may take three to four months for vision to stabilise as the body adapts. Persistent blurring beyond a few days warrants medical attention.
Key points:
- Temporary blurry vision often links to blood sugar changes from weight loss injections.
- Dehydration from reduced thirst or appetite can contribute to dry eyes and blurring.
- Vision generally improves as blood sugar levels stabilise.
- Rare serious eye risks exist, but temporary blurring is more common early on.
