I don't get these. Everyone else does and I don't lol. Sometimes I see a flash of light in a spot. Pretty sure that'll be an aneurysm in a couple decades.
When I got my eyes checked a few months ago, they where looking inside and asked me if I see a bright flash from time to time. I said that I do. They then said that if it increases in frequency, duration, or strength, I need to come in ASAP. They seemed concerned, but didn't want to elaborate for my sanity.
Is this X-Men’s Cyclops’ origin story? Maybe they’re worried you’ll have laser eyes and will need to wear protective eye wear for the safety of everyone around you.
Really, though, lots of eye flashes can be an issue with your retina. For me, I suddenly had a ton of flashes, like shooting stars, followed by a dimness that lasted for several minutes. It turned out to be an ocular migraine, which was kind of scary not knowing what was going on at the time.
