Has anyone else experienced blurred vision after a work out that can be tied directly to goggles? After the MD checked me out for symtpoms of a stroke, the Opth. couldn't find anything unusal with my vision. So the theory at the moment is that my goggles are somehow causing the blurrieness.
Any ideas?

I've had the same blurry eyed problem you describe.
Mine is NOT due to chlorine as I swim in two different pools, one that is chlorine based, the other uses some kind of state of the art something or other and uses such a small amount of chlorine you can't even smell it in the air when you walk in the building.
I've used speedo, barracuda and open water goggles and still have the problem. It usually clears up after 5 to 10 minutes after I stop swimming and is much more pronounced in my right eye, especially after swims in excess of 90 minutes.
I have no scientific evidence to back this up, but I think it's some kind of eye fatigue. Possibly something to do with the eye adjusting for focal length. That's my guess anyway.
