Strange side effect after surgery

Right after I woke up in recovery from the lap band surgery I had 2 large for lack of better word "floaters" in my right eye. Which then turned into what seemed like black sand all in my vision. No pain just disturbance in my sight. I have no idea what it could be and neither did the hospital staff or surgeons. The blotches haven't gone away but have lightened some. I thought it may be an aura because I get migraines but they gave me a shot for migraines and it did nothing, anyone have anything similar? Or have any thoughts?

No, no pain in head or eyes. Just dark splotches in my eyes that move when my eyes move

Maybe call your optometrist and see what he/she says. Seems unusual. I don't feel great about your surgeon not checking this out for you.
