What Causes A Refracted Color In The Peripheral Vision?

over the last couple of days, I have had 2 or 3 bouts of an arc of moving, refracted colour in my peripheral vision. It seems to be at the same time as when my neck is hurting, which is common, the result of a car accident years ago. It helped that my husband rubbed my neck and it went away.
Should I be concerned?
