Normal A1c, curious about shots, now side-eyeing the eye warnings

i’m 44, BMI 33, A1c 5.4, and I’ve been grinding through a long flat stretch after losing 26 lbs. My clinic keeps mentioning GLP-1s as an option, and I was almost ready to ask about one. Then I fell down a rabbit hole about vision problems — NAION, blurry spells, all of it. I know these are rare and I’m not diabetic, which supposedly changes the math, but rare stops feeling rare when it’s your eyeballs. I’m not looking for a diagnosis or a horror story contest. I just want to hear from people who weighed this same fear: did you wait, ask more questions, or decide the daily food noise was worse? I’m tired of being cautious and tired of being stalled.
