EYE WHITEWASH

FOR 6 MOS NOW I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A DISTURBANCE IN ONE EYE UNDER PHYSICAL AND OR EMOTIONAL STRESS. WHEN I EXCERCISE AS MY TEMP INCREASES MY ONE EYE FEELS AS IF ITS PULLING AND EVERYTHING BECOMES A SHADE WHITER AND BRIGHTER IN THAT EYE. I HAVE DONE THE MRI THING, CAT SCAN, OPTHOMOLIGIST, BEAUMONT EYE INSTITUTE...ETC..ETC..EVERYTHING CHECKS NORMAL. IT IS MORE OF A NUISANCE THAN ANYTHING. WHEN I TURN MY EYE ALL THE WAY TO ONE SIDE IT JUMPS AROUND LIKE ITS FIGHTING THE OTHER EYE FOR FOCUS. MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. COMES AND GOES. ALWAYS SEEMS THAT THE COLOR IS ALITTLE SKEWD THOUGH. A LITTLE WHITER, A LITTLE BRIGHTER IN THE ONE EYE. WHEN I AM ANXIOUS OR STRESSED IT GETS REALLY CRAZY. FRUSTRATED.....

IF THE VISIN WAS DIMMER OR DULLER, WHAT WOULD THAT REPRESENT?

I would be more concerned if the affected eye had dimmer vision and duller.  I'm not sure what to make of the eye getting brighter - could be some migraine variant - that's my best guess.  Sometimes you never really find out the answer.  You could see a neuro-ophthalmologist if you are still concerned.
