Abstract EN
In this research, we represent the changes in visual acuity during pregnancy and after delivery.
Changes as myopic shift start during second trimester and will be stopped after delivery; however it is obtained that women will have the same refractive error as what they had in the first trimester, after postpartum.
So, any change in their spectacle prescription during this period is forbidden.
As a result, not only changing in hormones can cause myopic shift in vision, but also overweight has its retributive role.
What we are trying to do is to notify gynecologists and optometrists to be aware of these changes, so as to leave spectacle prescription writing to the session after postpartum period.
