Once in a while I am having really strange vision interruptions.
It always starts in the middle of my eye sight as a small field or a
glowing object that looks like an polished metal with angular lines.
Then it grows and in the shape of crescent expands from the center to
the outher edges of my vision - either left or right.
It always happens with ONE eye, but never with the same one.
This "effect" lasts for about 15-20 minutes and goes away, but when it
happens I am loosing my vision to the extend that I can't walk or drive
my car. The frequency is ... every 2-3 months.
Could you maybe tell me what the hell is happening??
What should I do?!

I AM NOT A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL. From my own experience, however, I suggest
that you have ocular migraine. Go to
1. An, ophthalmologist who will probably tell you it is not in his
bailiwick, but may discover some real eye problem. This is probably the
easiest to do and you should see one anyway.
2. A neurologist.
3. An ophthalmic neurologist to cover all the bases.

I agree, it's very likely migraine without the headache.
What you're perceiving as "one eye" is likely one-half of _both_ eyes.
There's nothing else that causes those symptoms.
See a neurologist and don't worry too much about it.
