I had red vision for some weeks a long time ago.

Hello!

I'm here to ask if anyone knows about any diseases or conditions that may include red vision. I had this issue multiple months ago, maybe even a year or more, but I no longer have this issue since it naturally got healed up after a couple of weeks. However, I still want to know if it is serious and if I need to be careful in the future. I have gotten 2 check ups but the doctors have not found much. The check ups were a series of scans of the inside of my eye, and that's about everything I understood and can recall.

The issue started out with a black (very dark red) blob (in my left eye only) that looked like a dark floater/dot at first and grew bigger and bigger as time progressed. It looked like some kind of viscous fluid, maybe some form of coagulated blood was leaking into my eye but I am not sure. It spread or it mixed into the rest of my vision so to speak (side-note: it started out in the central zone of my vision). As the days went on I just had this very dark red overlay on my vision and a lot more floaters than usual, and of course I couldn't really see because of a very blurred vision. After a bit into the issue happening it made it so that i could almost not detect light. It looked like when you shine a light through some dark liquid like coke, or a dark tea.

After a couple of weeks it healed up exactly before the check up I had booked, and after my vision cleared I had way less floaters that I had even before I had the issue. The way I know this is that the other eye which I had no issues with at all has way more floaters now compared to my left eye, but I might have perceived it wrong and something might be affecting both eyes which I'm not aware of.

My vision worsened and I ended up needing glasses after the healing happened. After the healing I noticed peripheral vision that was miles better than what I had before and compared my right eye. Even today the vision in my left eye is clearer regarding floaters and better if you consider peripheral vision compared to my right eye, except that I am near-sighted on my left eye of course. I can also see way more in the dark with my left eye compared to my right eye.

Most of what I called symptoms might be just random anomalies that I picked up on that don't have to do with the actual issue, but please do ask if you have any more questions.
