Loss of peripheral vision

about a week ago, I began experiencing a sudden onset of loss of peripheral vision in the right eye. there was no warning sign, this has occurred twice now, and I have now seemed to have lost permanently some peripheral vision all together in the right eye. the second time it occurred, it lasted longer, and thats when i went to my doctor ... she is sending me to a neurologist, but I am really concerned. it was VERY scary, and felt like the tunnel vision i experienced when i was a marathon runner so very long ago when i was nearing the end of a race.  the second time it happened, I did have ocular pain after. and now, I have lost some of the peripheral vision ... i hope it comes back. the only thing that I can think of is that i recieved the tetanus shot, as well as the PPD injection, I had site reactions, as well as other neurological side effects , and am still continuing to experience alot of problems. has anyone out there experience this with vaccines??? any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am also experiencing short term memory loss, painful fingertips, zapping sensations in my legs, arms, and hands. Swelling of my lymph nodes, fatigue, exaustion, painful joints, muslcles aching all the time, buzzing, cramping.. extreme insomnia.. and so much more..

There are many causes of loss of peripheral vision.  It is most likely an eye or optic nerve problem if only occurred in one eye.  Did you see an EyeMD?
