Change in Vision
If things suddenly start to appear blurry, a dip in your blood sugar levels may be the cause. Hypoglycemia, especially in individuals with diabetes, can potentially trigger visual symptoms, such as blurred vision, “black spots,” or even double vision. Low glucose levels aren’t the only thing that can affect your eyesight, though. In fact, high blood sugar can also affect eyesight by causing lens swelling. Persistent visual changes should be discussed with your doctor as soon as possible to rule out other potential causes.

Slurred speech can be a surprising sign of low blood sugar. This typically occurs when your glucose levels drop below 40 mg/dL. Experiencing this symptom, along with difficulty processing language, is an indication that it’s time to eat. Other moderate symptoms include muscle twitching, unsteady walking, and emotional fluctuations. Your symptoms develop incrementally as your blood sugar drops. Therefore, it can be useful to know the difference between mild and moderate symptoms so you can act accordingly.
