If your blood sugars are not well controlled it may be causing your vision to vary and have trouble with reading, focus, distance vision. It may take a couple of months after your blood sugars are under good control (A1c less than 6.9 ) for  your vision to stablize. Be sure that your eyes are examined by an Eye MD ophthalmologist not an optician at a chain optical.
