Yesterday I was on the computer when all of a sudden I saw about 4 flashes of light in my eyes and it's all I can think of, I'm so worried.
Can this be a symptom of anxiety? It was like when you see lightning flash...
There was thunder and lightning yesterday but that was in tr morning, I checked the met office website and there was no lightning recorded in my area at the time I saw the flashes. The only other thing there has been fireworks going on still, but there was no bangs or noises? Unfortunately nobody was in the room with me at the time so I can't tell if it was outside or in my eyes, but I feel like it was in my eyes.
I've for floaters and had an eye test in August because of them, the test came back fine, I even had some drops to dilate my eyes so she could see the backs of my eyes/retina but still I'm worried, my worst fear is going blind, I've had this worry since being 14 and I'm now 20.
Anyone else had this? Please help!
One more thing, I did just start taking Cipralex (on day 6 now) so don't know if it's related/is a side effect but if so I don't want to be on this med anymore!!!
