What Causes A Blurry Vision?

I have severe iron deficiency, cause is unknown. I'm also doing an eight year long challenge with thyroid cancer (thyroid removed 8 years ago). Plus, I've had a detached retina two years ago, still not good vision in that eye. I'm now having blurry vision in the "good" eye. Could the iron deficiency cause this? Many thanks for any assistance you could provide.
