Scary annoying vision problem!!

[clank]

Last night I had this weird problem in my left eye. My left eye was really blurry, it was strange, and when i closed my eyes, there was this flashing white/black light going right through it. It made me very dizzy and nausaus. I thought I was getting a migraine but I didn't. Two hours later the weird blurryness came back. Except it was a half a circle on my left half of my vision on my left eye again. Same blinking black/white when i closed my eyes. It was very, very scary, I didn't know what to do so i just sat through it hoping I didn't have a random seizure or something. Has anyone every expierenced something like this before? What was it? Is it dangerous? PLEASE HELP

It was something like that! Except it was a straight line through my left eye vision and it was blinking black and white at super sonic speed.

EDIT: It seems to be a migriane aura! I just read up on it a bit! Thanks for the help! I had to miss school today because I was super afraid that I was going to get a migraine during class, and tomorrow i'm going to the doctors again to talk about my anxiety problem
