The laser spot targetted on the retina also crosses the nerve fiber layer and as the tissue response to the laser occurs, stimulation of the nerve fiber layer causes the flashes. However, if the symptoms are severe, prolonged or associated with diminished vision, a detailed retinal examination is warranted.
