24F rapidly deteriorating vision

[Silauf]

24F  vape sometimes. Don't smoke. (Binge) drink sometimes but recently quitted drinking. Have done psychedelics and ketamin in past but also stopped doing that.

1,5 years ago i started seeing starburst around lights at night. I didn't think much about it till suddenly 1 year ago i also started seeing it during the day. It kept getting worse and worse. Right now i can't see in the dark anymore, anything that gives light is out of focus (screens, etc...) and gives me after images and my depth perception and peripheral vision is also impared. I have also issues with processing things that are moving fast which makes things like gaming almost impossible. Since 4 months i can't drive in the dark anymore and since 2 months its also getting harder and harder to drive during the day since my peripheral vision and depth vision are getting worse and worse. I also have reduced contrast in my vision and colors also seem slightly washed out.

I already went to 2 eye doctors, both couldn't find anything wrong. 2nd one thought it might be my optic nerve and gave me thiamine and b-complex since i have a history of undereating. Been taking those for 3 weeks now, haven't noticed any improvements in vision.

I don't have any family history of eye disease.

I'm worried since i don't know what is going on and i'm scared that it will keep getting worse.
Does anyone know what this can be?

This is not a classic syndrome but your symptoms individually and as a group are concerning.  Just like there are all kind of baseball and football players there are all kinds of doctors and they are not equally trained or competent. You need to see an ophthalmologist, Eye MD,  if possible one at a medical school. You need certain tests that are not part of a regula eye exam:  glasses test (refraction), visual field test, amsler grid test, dilation of pupils,  macular and opic nerve OCT, corneal topograpy. That should have about a 90% chance of identifying the problem.  If not and your symptoms persist you may need to be referred to a neuro-ophthalmologist and have a head MRI/MRA.  Do proceed as these are not the things that are at all normal. Doesn't mean it will be serious but it could be.
