Does quitting smoking cause blurred vision?

Kristen,
 
Smoking can mask many symptoms, however, take the time to check with your doctor or optometrist to rule out anything medical!

Well since i gave birth to my 2 children my eye sight hasn't been the best anyway. I was just concerned that i may have astigmatism and smoking masked it. Is that possible?

Hi Kristen,
 
I haven't heard of blurred vision as a withdrawal symptom but I have heard of people feeling "spaced out".  Could that be what you are referring to? 

This indistinct but annoying symptom is linked with carbon monoxide withdrawal. It gives a sense of being in "another dimension." It can include changes in distance and space perception, a floating feeling, and a total lack of concentration. Remember that carbon monoxide is a deadly poison - it is a good thing to get out of your system.

How long will this last? The first few weeks after quitting.

Tips to help: Plan your workload to account for your temporary lack of concentration. Avoid additional stress during the first few weeks.

If you have a symptom that persists or seems worse than you expected, you should immediately consult a doctor. Its possible that your smoking has been masking symptoms of some illness, and when you stop smoking the symptoms abruptly become noticeable.

I seem to be having more blurred vision since quitting smoking. I don't know if that has to do with quitting but it's pretty aggravating.....
