In the last month i ve woken up from a nap with blurred vision in my right eye. Do you know what that can be from? there was a lot of dog hair on the couch at my friends house the first time. And the 2nd time was earlier today. no dogs at home. but both times i was sleeping on my right side. Scared.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having blurred vision on waking up from nap.
This may be because of pressure on the eyes as a result of sleeping on that side.
If this has lasted only for few minutes no need to worry.
The other causes to be considered are transient ischemia or amaurosis fugax which are seen because of vascular causes.
If these episodes are recurrent fo consult your doctor for evaluation and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
