My left eye particularly feels like im looking through a kaledoscope [sp] Any ideas it's just come on. I have morning sickness and threw up earlier.

if you have no headach and it reallyis only in one eye, or does not go away by having something sweet, I would see you dr/optomotrist ASAP.

Good, you look after yourself. (Congrats on the pregnancy BTW) and make sure to keep a wee stash of something tasty in your bag!

I have had this a few times, particularly when I'm stressed out. The vision in one eye is like looking through a prysm. All distorted and weird. I was seen by consultant oththalmologist who decided it was an optical migraine. I never had a head ache with it either.
