Permanent Aura?

Well I'm 15 years old, and I've been getting blurred vision on the outline of my eye for atleast 6 months now. I started getting them after I smoked marijuana for the first time. I think the marijuana and the "auras" are somehow correlated. I'm just wondering what is going on. It has been going on for so long I dont remember feeling normal. I've gotten used to the aura, it seems like everything around what I'm looking at is shaking. Please help ASAP.

You need to tell your parents about the aura and have them take you to the doctor.  They can determine what is wrong :)

Don't put it off!

Yes, this is going to be very difficult for you to be completely honest with your parents.  You need to tell them and deal with the consequences you are obviously dreading.  Be completely honest with both yourself and your parents about whether you are going to need to seek drug addiction counseling.  This is essential to your health and well-being, because you must not go near pot again, even if you're possibly attracted to it or craving it.  If you're not completely honest with your parents and future doctors, this will also be dangerous to your future health and well-being.

It is better to deal with the consequences of dealing with how your parents will likely react to hearing this news from you than it is to deal with possible long-term health issues caused by putting off medical care.

Please listen to the adults here who are telling you to be honest with your parents, even though you are clearly apprehensive about having to tell them what you've clearly done behind their backs already.  It is good you have reached out to ask others anonymously for medical advice.  But, you are a minor, too, so you must tell your parents.  This isn't going to be easy.  Your parents may yell and scream even.  And, I'm sure it isn't going to be easy, since you know how disappointed they will be in you for the pot smoking.  It will be hard to have to face this.  You really don't have a choice if you want to get the medical help you need.

Think of this as a learning opportunity that will shape your young adulthood for the better when you take this to your parents.
