What causes blurry vision in pregnancy?

If you think you're seeing things when you're pregnant, you're probably right. Your eyes are affected by the same build-up of fluids that may give you thickened ankles or bloating. Your lens and cornea (the outermost layer of your eye) may thicken, and the pressure of the fluid within the eyeball may change. These changes together can cause your vision to blur. Because it is sometimes a symptom of pregnancy-induced hypertension, you should report any blurred vision to your healthcare provider.
