A complete ophthalmologic exam should be performed to determine the cause of your symptoms.
It all depends on associated symptoms and if the blurriness resolves. In a 42 year old male blurriness can be caused by an issue called central serous chorioretinopathy. This can be self limited and resolve over 4 months, but there can be residual visual deficit. Depending on the location of the issue in the macula, treatments to expedite resolution may be available. The first step is to see an ophthalmologist to get a proper diagnosis.
