peripheral vision

From time to time my peripheral vision just dosent work really. I first noticed it a few weeks ago. I was watching tv and noticed that I couldn't see my right hand out of my right eye when it was stretched out beside me. an hour or so later i could see again. Since first noticing it I've noticed it three more times. Should I worry about this?

Yes you need to be worried. This could represent serious disease of the brain, heart, blood vessels or eyes, it might be a TIA transient ischemic attack. Best thing it could be would be eye migraine (which don't have headaches often)
