Eye changes and pregnancy
Here’s an excuse to treat yourself to those Jenna Lyons copycat frames you’ve been eyeing : planning for pregnancy.
Pregnant women have two somewhat surprising changes to their eyes during pregnancy.
- Change in vision: Most experts describe a “myopic shift” during pregnancy, meaning a shift towards near sightedness. Our estrogen and progesterone levels rage during pregnancy, which increases the water content of our cornea and lens, which affects our vision. For those of you who are not plagued by poor vision, near sighted means you can see objects that are near. The further they get, the blurrier they are. For those of you with perfect or nearsighted vision, your vision can get worse with pregnancy (that’s 60% of you!).
- Contact lens intolerance: About 25% of women become intolerant of their contact lenses during pregnancy (yes, even women wearing those wonderful Dailies). Experts think it’s because your cornea changes shape during pregnancy. The contact lens no longer fits properly. Eighty percent of pregnant women have dry eye complaints as well, which may cause irritation with contact lenses.
Luckily both of these changes resolve completely within the first few months post partum. Your eyes return to their prepregnancy state.
So what’s my logic for the new frames?
If you wear contact lenses, there is a chance you won’t be able to stand them during pregnancy. You’ll need glasses instead. And you shouldn’t get a new prescription / new glasses during pregnancy because your vision is changing slightly. You will need to get them now, before pregnancy. Ta-da!

HOW I WAS CURED FROM HERPES VIRUS
I am writing this testimonial with immense gratitude and a renewed sense of hope in my heart. For years, I battled with the physical and emotional torment caused by the herpes virus. It felt like an unending struggle, until I discovered a remarkable solution that changed my life forever. Like many others, I had tried countless remedies, medications in search of a cure. I had lost hope, resigned to the belief that herpes was something I would have to live with indefinitely. However, fate intervened and led me to a breakthrough that altered the course of my life. Upon stumbling on a revolutionary treatment option, my skepticism slowly transformed into a flicker of hope. The treatment was a natural remedy from Dr Awase [ HERBS ] Over time, as I followed the treatment diligently, I started noticing positive changes and I experienced a boost in my overall well-being. I am ecstatic to share that I am now herpes-free confirmed by my Dr after a test was done. The treatment I received was nothing short of miraculous and I couldn’t be more grateful. I have regained my self-confidence and the burden that once weighed heavily upon me has been lifted. I was cured of my herpes virus through natural medication.
If you, like me, have been struggling with herpes and searching for a way out, please know that hope exists. May my story inspire hope in the hearts of those who need it. He also specializes in getting rid of HPV, OVARIAN CYST, PCOS, HEPATITIS and a lot more.
