Hard really to describe, but it started out as a wavy bright line, now the right half of my vision is alll blury, and looks kinda like when you shut your eyes and rub them, and you see the colors and shapes all over, well it looks like that and its moving close to my main point of view, making this hard to type out.

What they heck is causing this, should I be too worried, go to er,what you think??

TIA

that sounds like a floater, i think the formal term is "posterior
vitreous detachment".

better get to an optometrist or ophthalmologist & let them
shine some bright lights in your eyes.

Well I have floater all the time, but it wasnt floaters, it was kinda electric like in a way, but its gone now this morning. If it comes back Im going to go to ER or my doc if he has a opening I can get into right away.

If you see any bright flashes of light, get to an ER quick as that could indicate a retinal detachment in progress. Otherwise I have no idea WTF you're talking about. If it doesn't let up, head to an ER/Urgent care center and see if they know anything.

It was bright, wavy, light and color, and couldnt make out anything around me through it. It use to happen once a month or so, now its becoming almost a every day thing and lasts a few hours then goes away slowly.
Its annoying as hell, especially when it comes into the middle of view and effects me seeing around me. Guess next time I have one happen I will get to the er right away.
