Crazy stuff going on with my eyes

Okay, over the past couple of weeks my eyes have been going crazy and it's starting to worry me. I don't wear glasses and have always had great vision, and while I don't think I'm losing my vision (I can see stuff just fine) I think something is up.

Periodically I will notice that I am looking at stuff crosseyed or close to it and everything blurs together, but then I come too and I can see just fine. Also at just random times, well, I'm not really sure how to describe it. Like right when I walked inside the library earlier tonight it happened, and the best I can describe it is the world just completely turns upside down. I completely lose orientation and I for just a second I literally have no fvcking clue what is going on. It's so weird, like imagine the feeling of being completely plastered and then spinning around getting dizzy and then I guess getting punched in the face.

Could this be a sign of my vision going? Or perhaps something more serious?

Umm...not to be overly dramatic or anything, but you really should get checked out ASAP.

Edit: This is assuming you're in otherwise good health, getting enough sleep, etc.

Yeah, oh it is completely zoning out. I've been getting a decent amount of sleep, no less than I've always got. The zoning out part doesn't worry me so much, it's that weird disorientation that I get. It just occurs randomly and just started, but for a second or two it is like I am beyond completely fvcked up. Then I just snap right back to where I was and everything is fine.

Go see a doc. It might be nothing, but it's not worth it to allow something to potentially get worse.

This is a guess, but it could be something related to your ears. Orientation and balance centers are there.
