metamorphopsia
Explanation:
Not a medical type, but working on the term I found this ... the wikipedia page gives you a good idea where to start. Under symptoms it has

"Distorted vision in the form of metamorphopsia, in which a grid of straight lines appears wavy"

and the Swedish has

"Symtom på den våta formen är förutom nedsatt synskärpa, också så kallat krokseende eller metamorfopsier (raka linjer blir krokiga)"
