What Causes Impaired Vision After Undergoing Surgery Under General Anesthesia?

I noted a change in my vision about 2 months ago, got glasses for distance and night driving. I just had surgery on Thursday with general anesthesia and now it seems like my vision is worse. I prefer to have my glasses on while watching tv now - still okay reading. is this related to surgery? anesthesia? temporary?
