Disturbance Noticed In Eye Due To Long Hours Of Playing Games
Small patch of vision gets fuzzy with a rainbow pattern that I can hardly see through, similar to what happens if you stare at a bright light for too long, only I haven't stared at anything bright, just played my computer games for a few hours. It starts as a small patch, then spreads out, then eventually just fades away. But while it's there I can hardly see through it.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having disturbance of vision in the form of fuzzy vision and rainbow pattern. This appears like colored halos and requires evaluation by a ophthalmologist.
Playing video or computer games may not be responsible for this.
The common causes for this are corneal edema, lens opacities or mucus plaques over cornea.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
