Trish, I went through this 5 weeks ago. Out of the blue at work my vision started doing strange things, couldn't see things properly, flashing zig zags etc, first time anything like this had happened so the panic quickly came. This passed but I was on edge for the next few days worrying that it would happen again, it didn't but it knocked me for six for a while. I was extremely stressed at work at the time so there is the root cause, once you let the anxiety in its hard to break the vicious cycle. Try not to stress, hard I know, but you will be fine just like me and it will pass. Hope you feel better soon.
