(Permission to post)...I have a question about lactation and visual disturbance.  I am counseling a mother of a 4 week old infant who is experiencing intense sensitivity to light and some floaters and blurred vision.  Her eye doctor is chalking it up to hormones, which is a natural assumption but this lady has been either pregnant or breastfeeding (and at times both) for all but a few weeks of the last 5 years and this symptom is very new.  Is it likely that she would develop that symptom late?  She doesn't want to ignore something more pressing.  Any thoughts?
