Ophthalmology & Optometry - eye flashes of light


Expert: Dr Anand Shroff, MD, FICS - 10/26/2009

Question
What are eye flashes 0f light from.   I would like to get rid of them.  I also feel like there is something in my eye when there isn't.  I take Restasis for dry eye syndrome.  I have been told that I may never stop having the flashes.  Of course, they are worse at night, but my right eye, where they appear, never feels normal.  I have been to two Optometrists.

Answer
Dear Linda,

The dry eyes is not associated with the flashes of light. This is another entity insode the eyes and is not pathological.

Sending you the link to read more about this and its tips.
