Eyesight?

This morning I had an odd experience and one I certainly wasn't expecting on this journey. Here goes!

For a few days now I've noticed that I see better without my glasses than with. I'm aware diabetes (type II) can affect eyesight, but this threw me a little as it's usually adversely affected. So I made an appointment to see the optician, explained the situation and...

My prescription has suddenly improved. To the point where wearing my glasses is really a detriment to my eyesight. She and I are confounded by this. Has anyone else heard of this happening or had it happen to them?

She's sent me away for now, I can cope with the eyesight I have and she says it's pointless getting me new glasses now with the potential changes yet more weight loss will bring!
 
How fabulous. I've never heard of this, but think it's awesome. I've worn glasses since I was 12, I'm short sighted, and not diabetic. No change in my prescription.
 
Sugar has a massive impact on my mother's eyes, she's type 1 so maybe it is related. Good news though whatever the reason.
