Blurred Line

every couple of months, i will get this strange when im focusing on text on computer or paper

the blur is like a semi circle which starts small and gradually gets larger and eventually moves out to the edge of my eye and dissapers

it can go on for about 15 minutes, im really worried, i went to the opticians recently for an eye examintion and everything was fine

what is this blur, is it serious?

also when focusing on the tv, if theres a particluar colour ie red, i look away to something else i will see a coloured shape which wears away

i dont know if im over reacting but help please

Do some research on visual migraines and you should find that it is the most likely diagnosis. However, you still need to see your eye doctor in person to make sure you don't have another problem.  I suspect you are in the UK?
