So I was on my way home roughly an hour ago, when I started to notice something funny going on with my left eye. Passing lights appeared to 'shake', among other other things.
So when I get home and turn the lights on, I see, basically, a squiggly, animated rainbow. Part of my vision was blurred to the point I couldn't make out part of my head in the mirrior, and when I went to surf the net for possible solutions, I couldn't even read the text and the sensation was at that point affecting both eyes (but still more so in the left). This went on for roughly a half hour and continued to get worse before slowing down and completely vanishing within a span of like 2 minutes..
Has anyone ever experienced this or something similar? I searched for possible diagnosis and the closest thing I could find suggests retinal tearing or detachment. At any rate, if it happens again I'm gonna get it checked out.. I know what it's like to lose one of your senses, and I'm not about to let myself go blind..
