Can Sinus Leakage Cause Problems With Vision?

I am presently having a lot of vision problem. I had a eye doctor that checked my eye sight and was told my prescription and my eyes were ok. This did not solve my problem. Is it possible that my sinus is leaking in my eyes causing a film over it to cause bloured visison.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello,
It seems from the history that you are having eye problem with sinus problem.
Sinus problem can lead to headache and pain around the eyes but it is not likely to cause any vision related problem.
Vision related problem like blurring of vision is caused by problems in the eye like refractive error and inflammations of eye.
Hence this requires examination by one more ophthalmologist to look for these problems and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
