Question Clomid + jumping vision

I took clomid CD 3-5 (150mg), and I am on CD8 today. The last time I took clomid, it was a 50mg dose. I didn't have any side effects, except that it dried me up. This time I had terrible mood swings, etc. Today I have something very strange and a little upsetting happen to my vision.

I was tired and so I decided to lie down or a few minutes. When I closed my eyes, my head felt like it was swimming. The dizziness was very strong. When I opened my eyes, the dizziness went away. After a few minutes of this, I looked up, and, I'm not exaggerating here, my vision started jumping left and right by several inches. The jumps happened very rapidly and I couldn't focus on them. It was like someone was shaking my visual field back and forth. I closed my eyes again to try to make it go away, got terribly dizzy, felt like I was spinning, and then freaked out and stood up, out of bed.

Once I stood up, I was totally, 100% fine.

I haven't had any major floaters. There were a few flashes of light on CD3 and a few minor spots on my vision today, but nothing serious.

Is this cause for concern? I assume the change in blood pressure did something to make my vision funny when I was laying down (versus standing up). I'm not sure whether I should contact a doctor or not.
