What Causes Difficulty In Focusing And Blurred Vision?

Yes, I am an advid golfer. Over the last couple of months I become unable to focus over lack of energy in my opinion. But I have eaten apples, oranges, energy drinks (PowerAid/Gatorade, plus some energy bars to help. Most of the time it works ok, but recently the blurry vision needed to complete my putting. I performed admirably, but missed several short putts because of vision problems. I can see the ball in flight of the tee or during approach shots. My doctor is in the process of ordering some tests for irregular heart beat

Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

I read carefully your question and would recommend first consulting with an ophthalmologist to exclude a possible eye disorder.
If the ophthalmologist excludes an eye disorder, I would recommend performing further tests to investigate for the possible causes:

- a brain MRI study
- visual evoked potentials
- vitamin B12 levels
- complete blood count for anemia.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
