NEW FLASHES & FLOATERS IN YOUR VISION
DESCRIPTION
Floaters or flashes in your vision are common for many people. Floaters refer to dots, threads or cobweb-like appearances in your vision. Flashes refer to sparks of light in your vision. Both can be harmless; however, new flashes or floaters in your vision may be associated with retinal disease.
It is important to see your eye care provider immediately during office hours, or call the 24 hour line at 312.225.6200.
