sudden eye sight changes

About a week ago I was sitting on the couch and suddenly felt slightly disoriented and my vision would not focus properly. It seemed as though I was looking through a tunnel and around the tunnel and in my peripheral vision I was seeing blurred colors (almost like when you come in and its dark but was real bright outside. This lasted for about 20 minutes and passed. though concerned I thought little more about it and just figured it was just the changing of light messed me up for a few minutes longer than normal. However, I have had the same thing happen twice more. There is no pain and even though I have suffered from back injuries and migraines in the past I do not have the migraines when this has happened. Before typing this it happened and it felt as if my sight was when you kinda space off and stare at something, you see it but you cant really focus on it. Very nervous here. Please advise.

This could be a migraine variant but it could also be a transient ischemic attack TIA due to disease of the heart, brain, eye or blood vessels. You need to see an ophthalmologist Eye MD AND your personal physician. Please act now.
