sudden blurred vision

[jazzeaw]

I was watching TV then all of the sudden it felt like something fell out of my eye, i assume an eyelash and then the TV became blurry.  I lost some of my long vision.  My history is that I had lasik 4 yrs ago - mono vision.  my left is my "long" eye and my right is my "short eye".    the blurring occurred in my right eye and I lost some of the long vision i had.  i can still see short.  What happened?  Did something fall from my eye?  i looked up detached retna and torn flap but those symptoms are much more severe.  should I be worried or is this normal?  I am 47

I will call tomorrow, it is 8 pm here on the east coast and no drs are in.  It does not hurt so I do not think I need to go to the emergency room.   Wouldn't it hurt or something if something bad happened?  I do still have my short vision. just the middle range is blurry now.

I can't be sure what is going on but I am 100% sure you should see your ophthalmologist right away to find out the cause.  If vision is still blurred you should be seen today.

even after 4 yrs?  I just had a checkup in Jan it all was well.

I can't tell for sure but if your vision is still blurred tomorrow you should get in tomorrow to see the surgeon that did the lasik.
