Slightly distorted vision in my right eye? What is it?Ok, a day ago, I woke up with a strange issue in my right eye. It's sort of a faint color cloud that is slightly impairing my vision. It's not strong enough to impair objects, rather mainly reading text. While reading, letters would slightly dip downward progressively as I would progress in my reading.
Best way to describe what I see like is when you get flashed in the face with a light and you see a kind of floating colored orb. Except it's very faint, doesn't obscure whole objects, just close details(mainly text). I thought it would pass but it hasn't yet. I plan to set an appointment in the morning with my eye doctor but would like some insight on what this might be. I have no other symptom that I can seem to figure out.
As a child I suffered from Strabismus, but my right eye was always the stronger one. I've had several surgeries to take care of that and my left eye was more of the problem eye in regards with the Strabismus. I doubt this is related to it at all as the problem only seems to be present in my right eye. And I don't suffer from stuff like double vision or whatever.
I am 25, I don't wear contacts, but I wear prescription glasses. My prescription was updated a little over a month and a half ago. From what I can tell it doesn't seem to be caused by the lens.
No I don't notice any discoloration or anything unusual when looking in the mirror.
No illnesses that I know about., I've been pretty particular with my nutrition.
The only unusual thing I can note, is the day before, I went to celebrate a friend's birthday a private karaoke room place. And someone left these strobe lights going for most of the time, maybe 5hrs?

Hmm, it sounds like corneal clouding, due to multiple causes but mainly due to lack of oxygen to the cornea. I can't be certain, but from your symptoms that's what it sounds like. Have it checked out by the eye doctor with a slit lamp which will tell you definitively if it is that or something else. Do you wear contact lenses? can you see a white mark/circle on your cornea when looking in the mirror? These answers will help narrow down. or it could be a cataract, how old are you? do you have any systemic illnesses? .. it could be a multitude of things and without seeing your eye myself I couldn't tell you. Good that you're having it checked out. Hope i helped somewhat! God bless ya:)
