Is this HPPD or just a side effect from shrooms?

So long story short I ate 1.5g shrooms twice spaced out between 7 days. I'm on the fourth day after the second trip and this is what I am experiencing...
1. Vision is light sensitive. I went on a walk this morning and anything that was brightly colored/mostly white caused me to have to look away.
2. Things seem blurry. And if I try to focus they start to have an outline. Can only focus on small details, not the large picture.
3. When I go from a bright room to a dark room, vice versa, I literally have to close my eyes or get like a bright flash.
4. Its harder to read things far away - 20/20 vision, never had an issue.
5. Still have large feelings of afterglow.
6. Large objects/tv is hard to focus on, kind of like my eyes resort to tunnel vision focusing on one detail.
Is this normal or have I possible developed HPPD? Side note I have stopped smoking weed since my bad trip.

I randomly developed HPPD at some point. Can't say it was related to a specific trip but I trip once a month or two. It lasted about three months I guess, most notable mornings and nights.
Likelihood is it will clear, so don't sweat it!!

I’m pretty sure I fried my eyes tripping in the hot sun once. I used to have really good vision until I ate a fuck ton of shrooms and stared at the street melting. Not smart to trip in tons of light.

Freaking out and worrying about it just makes it worse.

Well being this close to your trip means anything youre experiencing even your personality atm is bound to change.
Around 6 months for me I finally stopped being the post-tripper and started being the new person from the learning experience.
My HPPD is that if I stare at patterns I can force them all to swirl around and flow all trippy-like. But its more of a thing I do when I'm bored or waiting in a waiting room for a dentist or something. Not really a permanent effect.
I reckon dont sweat it. You made the journey now just chill back and see where life takes you. Youre very likely safe bro. Nothing wrong with you. Good vibes.

One can live with these effects completely fine. Whether or not you get broken by continous assaults like HPDD and tinnitus, is affected by your mentality and emotions. As as sufferer of both, I'd like to tell you: you are your focus. If your focus is to be hopelessily grinded down by your sensations and your body, it is your choice.
There is accept; and there is remedy. Accept is a remedy freely available, but it can only be taken and grasped if you try.
I found these thoughts highly offensive when I received them many years ago, today I see their wisdom and live with my problems as best as I can, never turning into my suffering, but using it to remind me of suffering, my own and other people's suffering and how much of it can be adressed, dealt with, instead of griping over that which cannot be changed.

Also consider that you stuck a gnarly, unwashed finger in your eye, as some of what you describe could be pinkeye. If your eye(s) are hurting at the exposure to light and look like you just coughed a lung out, go to your doc and see what they have to say about it.
