Seeing green

It has only happened a couple of times but after waking up from a day time nap, everything looks monochrome green- as though all the other colours have been filtered out. then, after just a couple of seconds, the full colour returns. I'm not too concerned but Googled it anyway and came up with the usual range of answers from diabetes to drinking too much tea.

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced it?

Re: Seeing green

Eh!....was it green tea Ye were drinking before Ye dozed off? ....I see red occasionally...but never green.

Re: Seeing green

Are you having any other symptoms - visual distortions, dizziness, hearing loss, memory loss, balance problems? Any tremors or weakness? Do you keep hydrated?

One of the many answers I googled was low BP although I have never suffered from it before. i suppose tiredness could cause it. I only got about three hours sleep last night before having to go to work.

None of the above but perhaps I don't drink as much as I should.
