Description
ANBLRVIS_ALL indicates whether the woman experienced blurred vision while pregnant.
ANBLRVIS_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANBLRVIS_01) and, in some cases, additional births (potentially, ANBLRVIS_02, ANBLRVIS_03, ANBLRVIS_04, ANBLRVIS_05, and ANBLRVIS_06). For most surveys, this information on blurred vision as a pregnancy complication is available for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
The related variable ANVISION_01 (M47_1) indicates whether the woman had difficulty with daylight vision while pregnant with her most recent birth.
