Has anyone experienced any problems with their eye sight when they get glutened? Lately I have been experiencing about 20 min. of tunnel vision after an accidental glutening event. It is kind of scary.

No, no tunnel vision, but when I get glutened it is almost impossible for me to do my counted cross stitch. My eyes don't seem to focus as well

no tunnel vision here, but my vision gets blurry and I get "tics" in my eyes where they twitch uncontrollably after getting glutened.

I haven't been diagnosed yet, I have a Dr's appt. next Thursday. But I never associated celiac disease with my vision

problems until I started reading some posts here. I went for my yearly eye exam last Nov. I only needed

reading glasses at the time. My eye Dr. said my vision had deteriorated and I needed 2 X stronger glasses and I should wear them all the time. She even mentioned that maybe I am lacking vitamins for them to get

bad that quick. I am still eating Gluten until my appointment and I also notice blurred vision a lot, I feel like I have to keep blinking to focus.

My eyesight is definately affected when I get a gluten reaction. The vision gets a little fuzzy--like I need to blink a lot to clear it, and it can be more difficult to focus. The sensation is hard to explain, it's like my vision darts from side to side very quickly, and I have to concentrate on it to make it stop.
