Blurred vision in one eye

I woke up yesterday with blurred vision, especially at distances, in my left eye. If I cover my left eye, my right is fine. If I cover the right, the left eye is very blurry. What could it be?

I have the same problem; went to see an eye doctor, he is sending me to a specialist on Tuesday. The optometrist seems to think it is a torn retina, with research I have found it is treated with a laser. It is considered an outpatient surgery.

A sudden change is vision can be very serious.  See an ophthalmologist ASAP.
