Blurred vision?

I had surgery on Thursday and I'm currently taking lovenox, zofran, and Tylenol with codeine. 

I was reading and suddenly my vision got super blurry. Is this normal?  Should I be worried?

I would call my doctor just to be on the safe side. I did not experience any blurred vision but some days I would get real dizzy and they eventually had to take me off of my blood pressure medicine because I no longer needed it.

Feel better soon.

Thankfully it passed shortly after I posted. 

Super weird though. I wonder it's due to the anesthesia still in my system.

I had that, it lasted a couple of weeks.  I think I even posted about it somewhere.  It went away

Thanks!  I didn't recall reading another post about it, so I didn't even think to search!

Some pain killers can blur your vision. I had blurry vision the entire time I was on the morphine pump in the hospital.

I had blurred vision for days following surgery. I now notice when I'm slightly dehydrated (mostly in morn) I have blurred vision. I don't know for sure they are related but I did notice a correlation.
