Have you had a slit-lamp eye exam before? This may be way-off, but you might consider getting your retinas checked out. Also, you might check each eye one at a time carefully to see if one eye has that effect more than another. I have one retina that is pigmented from taking Mellaril. You also mentioned previously about having some bad vertigo/balance probs. Have those gotten any better? Lithium causes some quirky things to happen when I took it as well. I noticed scale distortions (primarily), and a very weird occasional "black spot" in my peripheral vision that would suddenly appear and then "close up" and then disappear.
