What Causes Distorted Peripheral Vision?
I have had astigmatism for 53 years. I m also near and far sighted. I have cataracts, very blurred vision. My question is what is causing distorted peripheral vision? I often think what was that? What just flashed beside me? This usually happens with my right eye, but sometimes the left peripheral does the same thing.
