Had one of the worst headaches of my life a year or so ago, saw dots burnt into my vision, a significant amount of new floaters, and a black spot in the top of one of my eyes. Almost all of that is gone now tho and idk how, minus the floaters tho, they're still annoying.
Even went to an eye doctor and they said nothing was wrong.
Mine began as a shadow the grew until I was almost blind. The optometrist saw nothing wrong. I went to the emergency room. They sent me to an opthalmologist for emergency surgery. It's much better now. The procedure is painful and long but worth it.
Can you see now?
Can it be cured? Please tell me
A retinal detachment is a serious condition you might think about going to the doctor or losing your vision.
I was reading something when a white flash randomly appeared in a dark environment i knew it was something serious, and man I'm nervous loosing my vision
I only see floaters and flashes when i close my eyes sometime at night can it be a symptom
Yes.
What if after I eat high msg food like Ramen or other soup in Japan, all the sudden the lights go super bright for few seconds? I researched and saw a link with high msg and it affecting the retina. I did one day see lots of new black floaters for a couple of days, i thought it was maybe eye makeup I forgot to wash off that got in my eye. I went t the eye dr and he said np. But he didn't dilate my pupils, is that whats needed to check the retina? Thanks.
Go see a retired specialist. 2 months ago I had what is called vitreous hemorrhage, it is a stroke between the back of the eyes , thanks to diabetes. Went to see my retina specialist and told me the best way to go with this is surgery, because after 2 Eylea injections wasn't getting clear. So Today as Match 13th I had the surgery and everything went well. So go and see a Retina specialist ASAP
Just for a laugh of the day. One time remember asking the Chinese chef do not put MSG on my food. So what did he put in? He put in HBO, so when I got home I started watching TV really well.

My right eye has experienced these problems after a retinal doctor took a retinal picture of my eye the machine burnt both my eyes . After 4 days of pain not being able to focus my eyes I received steroid drops and went to a new eye doctor. I'm getting flashes floaters and lines in my right eye that was perfectly normal no floaters great vision because of this picture funny thing is no one will admit to this hurting my eye sight.
I was hit with a tennis ball yesterday, i see a black spot right in the middle and a little at the top, it is just like the spot we see when we remove our focus from a bright light, and i can see it only in dark not in light. Is it normal or i should worry? Will it go away wih time?
Dude, I was hit by a football, I see almost the same thing... I only see it when I blink many times or when I open my eye suddenly
@honestreiewer2041 I'm sorry you were hit with a tennis ball! AARP does not provide medical advice; we recommend that you seek medical attention for a proper evaluation. - Janelle M.

I see the same what did u do
just white blood cells, nothing to worry about
But it so annoying. Can you tell what to do about that blackrings
@@fampaytanish6363nothing,you can’t do anything,it’s normal just white blood cells
I see the flashes of light but only when closing my eyes. And I can see something almost floating in my vision with my eye closed. But doctors make me light headed and stress me out.
Go to the doctor, it's way better ro go early than too late.
If you have a retinal detachment the option is going to the doctor or become blind.
@@isak4238 it’s been over a month and I’m not blind yet. Also I have a lot of money problems right now. I have auto problems and I’m not paying 750 dollars for an eye exam. Sure after I pay it if I need the laser my insurance would cover it but I can’t afford 750 right now. Odds are I won’t go blind.
@@georgelouis6515how are you now?
Its probally Vitreous detachment,Its not dangerous,But Its a sign that Retinal detachment Risk is higher
Please guys I need big help here. I've been treated for diabetic neuropathy on my eye for 6 years by a special retina specialist, with injections and LASIK. But this Saturday on 12/ 24/ 2023 I woke up and I could not see clear at all from my left eye, it's like a very filmy darkish shadow. Unfortunately it happened on Christmas weekend and my eye specialist was closed, and I'm so scared because I can't see, I only see shadows, is it vitreous problem?
Thank you. If anyone can return my message I really appreciate it. I'm going to see my retina specialist tomorrow ASAP they open 😥
I see flashes at the corner of my sight not shadows. What does that mean
I dont know brother
@@philiprohrmann4161 😂 no problem it’s gone now
How is ur eye now? I got hit by a ball. Everything was ok but after a week I noticed flashes at the corner of my injured eye. I went to eye doctor. He checked my retina but there is nothing wrong. Flashes appear throughout the day.
Its called vitreous traction
@@sunitgupta8426Your vitreous gel is pulling on the retina
Most important thing is sleep on time & dont take mobile/laptop n watch or do work in darkness,it directly affects retina, eat pineapple n dry fruits.
