TLDR: if you are short sighted did it get noticeable worse just after having kids?
I'm in a massive sulk tonight because I have new glasses. Didn't use to bother me, but this time not only did they cost an arm and a leg, but they are the dreaded varifocals, which is pissing me off immensely.
Anyway, it got me wondering. I got my first glasses when I was 14, and my eyes declined very gently from then until I had my first kid at 32. Within six months of birth my eyes were substantially worse. Happened again after my second at 35, within six months of birth there was a substantial decline.
So did this happen to anyone else? Is hormonal sight collapse a thing?
I'm frankly worried about what the menopause will do to me (although maybe that will actually be a good thing for me???)
Light hearted curiosity BTW, know I'm lucky glasses exist and that I can afford the sodding ultra thin lenses etc. Not interested in laser unless truly desperate as, you know, eye cutting whilst awake and stuff.
