Visual disturbances are fairly common symptoms of high anxiety. They are nothing to do with the eyes themselves but are due to stressed nerves connecting the visual cortex in the brain with the optic nerve.But please do see your doctor and in addition an eye specialist who has the right instruments to examine your eyes properly. Most local opticians have such equipment (a slit lamp opthalmoscope). It will bring you great reassursnce.

On this occasion the optician may be the best starting point. They can see more in the eyes, and have a complete knowledge of what is an eye full. He may then recommend a doctor. Try to stay calm and "slow-breathe"
