What Causes Colourful Lights In Vision?

Yes, my age is 65 female. About six months ago I saw beautiful rainbows around the moon and stars. At first I thought everyone could see this but my friends laughed, so I blamed it on my glasses. Now I see rainbows around everything at night. Went to eye doc and my pressure was 30 and 29. He said I needed more tests that I may have glocoma. Is there anything else that could cause this? I do have A fib and arrhythmia and take cardiac meds. Thanks so much.
