I’m only 17 years old, i have this problem where i see little flashes of light, same size as little dots, and also eye floaters, i see about 8 or 10 of them and they never go away i see them every second of everyday, is this a serious problem? do i need eye surgery ? but I really need to know mostly about the little flashes of light
Chosen Answer:
Anytime you see flashes of light you need to go see your eye doctor because it could be a retinal detachment. Also if you loose vision or it looks like a curtain is falling those are other symptoms of a retinal detachment. Please see your doctor right away.

I have the EXACT same thing as you right now, im going to the Opticians later this week. Not to scare you but the symptoms we have could be a Retinal Detachment, I recommend going to the Opticians ASAP!
