Lubricant gels can cause transient blurring of vision. Becomes OK after a couple of blinks. Should use them frequently followed by rolling movement of eyes with lids closed and then steady complete blinking of lids.

Hi..
It is normal to see little blur after gel application.
That's why we tell the patient about it and advise them to blink 20 times after applying, if putting in the morning ...to spread and also to clear the vision.
