What Causes Blurred Vision After Drinking Water?

When I drink say six glasses of water first thing in the morning, after about 30mins-1Hr, my vision becomes cloudy for say 10-20 mins and then goes back to normal. This is the same effect I get when I stay in water (Bath or Shower) for at least 20mins. What are the health implications of my eyes getting cloudy only after my encounter with water as described above?

water drinking for increase of blood volume may increase IOT. in one of test it is a recomanded test for diagnosis of glaucoma. so you should go for other test like field, fundus for optic disc cup ratio, gonioscopy, darkroom test to exclude gluocoma .
