Question: my right eye got kind of blurry -- it has happened before -- lasts about 15 minutes and goes away

Brief Answer:
?scintillating scotoma

Detailed Answer:
My dear, welcome to HCM.
Thanks for sending your query to us.
After going through what you have posted, I am of the opinion that, Such symptoms if followed by severe unilteral headache can be a prodromal symptom of migraine.
If not followed by pain then this requires complete eye examination and cardiovascular and neurological checkup. hence i also recommend physician visit.
In the meantime have a healthy lifestyle and get back to us with details of headache if present.
hope this was helpfull.

thank you, I'm thinking it's a migraine also. The blurriness is gone, but I do have a headache and have had migraines in the past. Thank you for your opinion.

Migraine

Detailed Answer:
My dear, Welcome back to HCM.

Other than the medication which you may be advised, it requires lifestyle management also . Excessive physical and mental strain precipitates it.

Have regular meals and if possible rest for half hour after lunch

Avoid excessive heat or cold exposure

Not a bad idea to go into yoga for relaxation

Take care.
