It actually sounds like an aura to me. If you begin to feel a massive headache coming on, then it's probably a migraine. Many people, myself included, have what is called an aura right before the migraine hits. The aura is basically how you describe it. Mine usually end up starting on one side of my vision as blurriness, then as a flashing zig-zag. It slowly moves from one side of my eyes to the other (maybe over a period of 10 minutes or so). Usually, the side the aura starts on is the side the headache starts on. If you start to get a headache on one side of your head, take something for it immediately. If you have Excedrin handy, try that. If not, take whatever you have as soon as the headache starts and combine it with caffeine. Try and go to sleep before the headache sets in.

Sounds to me like it might be the begining of a migraine headache, this is called on Aural Migraine, if it folows the classic progression you can expect to get a massive headache in the next hour or so.
In my personal experiance I find if i have a glass of water some nurophen and can get to sleep before the onset on the pain I will wake up several hours later feeling tired with a mild headache, rather than spending several hours wishing I could chop my head off and feeling completely exhusted.
Hope this helps
Edit:
I had my first migraine at 14.
I'm a teacher now and I have students as young as 12 and 13 who have them, pain is no respector of age.
But I am glad it has gone away.

May be related to poor vision....also could be early diabetes which causes visual changes. Finally, this may be a pre-symptom to migraines...an aura. either the blurred vision is causing the head ache or the headache by virtue of being a migraine is causing the blurry vision....if it's a migraine you will have the headache on one side, you may have pain with bright lights and nausea.

In plain wording, the back covering of the eye where we see images, is very lightly attached to the eyeball, so even a heavy sneeze or a blow in the back of the head can do retinal (the back covering) detachment. There may be also small lightning like images seen or we see something floating even because of stress. These conditions must be checked by a professional when they persists since it may be a sign that retinal detachment is occurring when lighting is seen or things are floating persistently in the vitreous that fills the eye ball.

The air from jumping dried out your eye. You'd be surprised how many people complain of blurry vision, but once they start using drops and keeping their eyes moist - it goes away!

Sometimes it could from the sudden jolt of jumping, which causes the blood to rush to the head rapidly, or it could be the retina, what I suggest is to lay in bed with your eyes closed for a while thus giving everything a chance to settle down, if persist go and see a doctor, just in case check your b/p

I'm not sure but it sounds like you better get to the Dr. ! Did you hit your head if so could be a concussion. I also heard that people lose part of their eyesight when they have migraine headaches.

See an ophthalmologist for an eye exam and check for cataracts and/or glaucoma: two common eye conditions that if found early, can be treated and in many cases--corrected.
Do this on the ASAP.
