Hi RSD ME,
Yep! CRPS does cause one's vision to go blurry at times. I too suffer from this. Usually when I try reading or typing like you.
The answer given to me by my neurologist was tension of the nerves in the eyes and it's something that people with CRPS have to deal with.
Sounds to me like there's nothing that we can do.
Be well...
