Visual hallucination or something of that nature? Help!?!
Question: Visual hallucination or something of that nature? Help!?
One day, while I was painting my room, there began to have a small ring of spirals in my left eye that began to expand as the time went by. I was so afraid, fortunately, I took a little nap and when I woke up, it was gone.
What was it? It is something serious? It is the first time I've had it and I never had it ever since then.
It is a single ring, with several smaller lines that moves in a wave-motion, and it blurs whatever is behind of it, but it is transparent. Please help!

Sounds like a visual migrane. Very common and generally nothing to worry about. They usually happen when you are tired, stressed or in an area of a high concerntration of fumes. So with painting it seems very normal.
If it happens again when there is no real trigger go and see a doctor to see if there is anything odd with your eyes.

Was the paint you were using an oil base? Sometimes paint fumes in a small room will create minor visual anomalies.
