pink vision

i have been searching all over the internet to find an answer to my question as to why my vision has changed; evrything has become very purple/pink/lilac. i no longer seem to be able to distinguish what is white/black/grey and what is pinkish? the colours that are already of a purple/pink are accentuated!
please help
i have had a blood test for glucose but must wait a week for results and i have had my eyes checked so am waiting for a referal to the hospital.
i must add also that i have been taking temazapam for a few years and am wondering if this has anything to do with this color disturbance?
anyone heard of anything like this?

What did the doc say when you had your eyes checked? First thing I'd think of was a little bit of blood inside the eye, but if you had your eyes checked already then they would have told you if that was the problem. Let us know what you find out.
